The Tesla Semi is a ‘totally stupid car’

A sloping windshield may result in blind spots compared to flat-nosed trucks, endangering pedestrians when turning. The tablet will also limit the display.

The side mirror is hard to reach

Because the cab tapers toward the front, my arms side mirror Be very tall. This means that you can’t just reach in and clean the window when it’s dirty. You have to get out and even then it will be difficult to reach the mirrors as they are very high.

In the aftermath he says Which electric trucks are better? From the semi: “Get Nikola, they use an Iveco Stralis cab, with a design that’s been perfected for over 50 years. Or Volvo. Or Mercedes. Or Daf. Or Scania. All the major truck manufacturers have been offering e-trucks for years.”
