Tesla has finally started to deliver the electric truck model Semi, which it has been working on for a long time. When the electric truck model, which Elon Musk could not fit into the sky, which was praised throughout his entire design life, passed into the hands of its real owners, namely the drivers, many annoying situations began to emerge.
One of the first names to experience Tesla Semi, a Polish truck driver named Tomasz Orynski made interesting observations about Tesla Semi. According to this name, which has years of experience, the first annoying problem with the vehicle is that the driver’s seat is located in the middle of the cabin. Indeed, with the exception of England and a few countries, the fact that the steering wheel is on the left is a feature that drivers do not even need to mention. However, in the Tesla Semi, the steering wheel is in the middle of the cabin, which causes the truck drivers to not fully perceive the lane in front of them while overtaking, and overtaking becomes dangerous.
Criticism of Tesla Semi may wake Elon Musk from his sweet dream
Another reason for Orynski’s intense criticism is that there are no glass windows in the cabin. Yes, there is no window in the cabin of the Tesla Semi. Therefore, drivers who have to make payments at toll booths or present documents to officers at customs will have to get out of the vehicle. You can say let them go then, but this is not easy either because the driver’s cabin and the entrance cabin consist of two separate sections, and the driver enters the vehicle from the rear cabin and passes into the front driving cabin where the steering wheel is located. Of course, this situation also causes the volume of the interior surface of the vehicle to be dirty, especially in rainy weather, to be 3-5 times more than a normal truck.
According to the experienced driver, the minuses on the truck are innumerable. The fact that the bed part of every truck is not in Semi, the windows are slanted, it snows, the side mirrors cannot be wiped without an extra tool because they are too high and far away, the charging time is less than 1 hour, even in the USA, except for super stations, where the number does not exceed the fingers of one hand. Problems such as the fact that drivers often have to take their eyes off the road due to the fact that all needs are done with the help of touch panels since there is no physical key, that the night journeys turn into a nightmare due to the fact that these panels scatter too much even in night mode, Elon Musk wakes up from pink dreams. seems more than enough for
