When you pay attention with the sound up, you possibly can hear the automobile because it drives down the loud freeway. In contrast with the sound of a diesel semi truck, this one is far quieter–even within the video.
“Fairly mind-blowing to see these Tesla Semis now being launched and seeing it pull heavy hundreds,” Stringer added.
PepsiCo’s Tesla Semi was additionally noticed earlier this week on the freeway by a Reddit consumer, u/Tutrifor, who uploaded the video to Reddit. The video was later shared on Twitter by Eva Fox. In that video, the Tesla Semi was so silent that somebody requested if the video was muted.
