The presentation of the Tesla Semi truck is postponed: Mask called the main reason

The inventor and the head of Tesla company Ilon Mask informed that the presentation of the electric truck Tesla Semi is being postponed again, now - on November 16.

Among the reasons for the carry-over is the increased interest in the third version of the Eloctromobile, as well as the financial assistance to Puerto Rico in the aftermath of the hurricane. This Mask reported in his Twitter.

It should be noted that initially the presentation of the innovative model of the truck was to be held on October 26 at the headquarters of Tesla in Horton, as is known from the statements of the head of the company.

The main reason: the company is now actively paying attention to the Model 3 model and helping people who suffered from Hurricane Maria in Puerto Rico.

Mask said that his company's employees are in the real "production hell" in connection with the numerous orders for the novelty.

At the moment, little is known about the novelty, because in Tesla they like this secrecy. Ilon Mask reported only that Tesla Semi is a "beast", and the company plans to launch a small pickup truck on the market, which will be assembled on the basis of this truck.
