Elon Musk Says Tesla Will Ramp Up Production of Semi Truck

Unveiled in November 2017, Tesla's (NASDAQ: TSLA) Semi, Class 8 electric truck, isn't rolling along on America's highways and byways yet. Evidently, Elon Musk is ready to change that. In an email reportedly seen by Reuters, Musk states that now's the time to bring the electric Semi to "volume production" and specified that "[p]roduction of the battery and powertrain will take place at Giga Nevada."
