UPS has pre-ordered 125 Tesla electric trucks

Tesla’s semi tractor claims:

• up to 500 miles range on a single charge, 

• an unparalleled cabin experience for drivers, 

• enhanced on-road safety and 

• significantly reduced long-term cost of ownership. 

Safety features include: automatic emergency braking, adaptive cruise control, automated lane guidance, and brake-by-wire and steer-by-wire with redundancy. 

By 2020 UPS plans that one in four new vehicles purchased annually will be an alternative fuel or advanced technology vehicle, up from 16 percent in 2016.
