Elon Musk couldn\u2019t help but include some teasers in his Tesla shareholder meeting address on Tuesday, reiterating that the company would be holding a special event to reveal its Semi Truck at the end of September, but noting also that he would \u201creally recommend showing up\u201d for the event because \u201cmaybe there\u2019s a little more than we\u2019re saying here.\u201d<\/p>\n
The truck should be news enough \u2013 Musk said he believes it\u2019s very possible for the company to create a practical, all-electric semi truck that will fit the needs of large freight trucking companies. He also said that Tesla is talking to those potential clients throughout the design process, so that the vehicle will be tailor-made for their needs once it comes to market.<\/p>\n
He said that the response from most people they show their work on the project to in the industry has been \u201cHow many can we buy and how soon,\u201d and added that what we\u2019ll see in September at the unveil will be a \u201cworking prototype.\u201d He also added that he expects Tesla to be able to achieve production at scale on the semi within \u201cabout two years,\u201d or possibly even 18 months.<\/p>\n
The comments around wha else to expect at the event made it seem like Tesla will have other news to share totally unrelated from the vehicle itself, however. Musk was coy about the additional news, but did take a tangent later on to talk about music in response to a question about his own musical tastes. He said that it\u2019s currently \u201cvery hard to find good playlists or good matching algorithms\u201d in music, and said Tesla will have an announcement about finding the right music later this year.<\/p>\n
It didn\u2019t sound like that was the special additional reveal coming at the semi truck event, but as always, it\u2019s hard to tell with Musk. Still, it sounds like September will be big for Tesla \u2013 18 wheels big, sure, but maybe even bigger still.<\/p>\n
