第三方物流服务提供商NFI Industries现在正在进行特斯拉股份有限公司（纳斯达克代码：TSLA）的半自动驾驶卡车Semi的试点工作，就像饮料制造商百事可乐一样。
What Happened: "Over the past few weeks, we've supercharged our fleet in Patterson, CA by piloting Tesla Semis in our daily operations," NFI announced on LinkedIn.
NFI在LinkedIn上宣布：“在过去几个星期里，我们在加州的Patterson以试点方式使用特斯拉Semi卡车来超级充电我们的车队。”

NFI团队表示，他们在250英里至450英里之间的路线上交付货物，同时还补充说该车的效率为1.64kwh/英里。
Tesla launched the semi-truck in 2017 and delivered a few to PepsiCo in December 2022. In May, Semi Truck Engineering Senior Manager Dan Priestly said that the company is delivering 50 more Semi-trucks to PepsiCo, expanding the number of Semis in PepsiCo's fleet to 86 units.
特斯拉于2017年推出了半自动驾驶卡车，并在2022年12月向百事可乐交付了几辆。今年5月，半自动驾驶卡车工程高级经理丹·普雷斯特利表示，该公司将向百事可乐交付另外50辆Semi卡车，将PepsiCo车队中Semi的数量扩大到86辆。
Why It Matters: Tesla is on track to start production of the Semi by the end of 2025, which is currently in pilot production. The company now working on the preparation of the high-volume Semi factory at the Nevada gigafactory, with an eventual target capacity of 50,000 units a year, Priestly said in May.
Tesla目前正在进行半自动驾驶卡车Semi的试产，预计将在2025年底开始生产，该公司现在正在为位于内华达吉加法布里克的高产Semi工厂进行准备，预计年产能将达到5万辆，普雷斯特利在5月表示。
As per comments from Tesla executive Lars Moravy in April, Tesla will commence production of the Semi in late 2025 but vehicles will start rolling out to external customers only in 2026.
根据特斯拉执行副总裁拉尔斯·莫拉维四月份的评论，特斯拉将于2025年末开始生产半自动驾驶卡车Semi，但是这些车辆将仅在2026年开始向外部客户提供。
