"After CEO Elon Musk said the Semi would enter volume production this year, Tesla revealed trim levels shortly thereafter. Offering a Standard Range and a Long Range trim will fit the needs of many companies that plan to use the truck for local and regional deliveries. With the release of specs, Tesla helped companies see the big picture in terms of what the Semi could do to benefit their business. However, pricing information was not available."
"A new report from Electrek states that Tesla has been communicating with those interested companies and is pricing the Standard Range at $250,000 per unit, while the Long Range is priced at $290,000. These prices come before taxes and destination fees. This is a step up from the prices that were revealed back in 2017, but with inflation and other factors, it is no surprise Tesla could not come through on the numbers it planned to offer nine years ago. When the Semi was unveiled in November 2017, Tesla had three pricing levels: $150,000 for a 300-mile range version $180,000 for a 500-mile range version $200,000 for a limited "Founders Series" edition; full upfront payment required for priority production and limited to just 1,000 units"
Tesla introduced two Semi trims targeted at local and regional delivery fleets: Standard Range and Long Range. Tesla has been communicating pricing to interested companies, quoting $250,000 for the Standard Range and $290,000 for the Long Range, exclusive of taxes and destination fees. The company indicated volume production this year and released specifications to demonstrate operational benefits and range capabilities. The Semi competes with existing electric semis from manufacturers such as Volvo. Quoted prices are higher than the 2017 launch-era targets due to inflation and other cost pressures. California incentives of roughly $165 million could support initial deployments.
