Tesla To Charge $300,000 For Long-Range Semi, Undercutting Rivals By Over $145,000: Report

Tesla Inc. (NASDAQ:TSLA) will reportedly charge $300,000 for the Semi Long-Range trim level ahead of 2026 deliveries.

$260,000 For Standard Trim, $300,000 For The Long Range Semi

The automaker will retail the Standard trim with 325 miles of range for $260,000 in addition to the $300,000 price tag for the Long-Range trim, Electrek reported on Tuesday.

Citing California Air Resources Board (CARB) data, the report suggested that the average price of a Zero-emission truck hovered around the $435,000 mark, which means that Tesla's Semi, with its reported $290,000 price before destination fees and taxes, would undercut rivals by over $145,000, the report said.

Tesla Reveals Semi Trims

The news comes as Tesla revealed two trim levels for the Semi Truck, with both able to recover 60% of the driving range from a 30-minute charge, according to the automaker. What's more, Tesla CEO Elon Musk confirmed that the Semi would be entering high-volume production sometime this year.

Tesla also delivered the first semi unit to logistics giant DHL last year and has partnerships with Uber Technologies Inc.'s (NYSE:UBER) Freight division and food and beverage giant PepsiCo Inc. (NASDAQ:PEP).

Benzinga Edge Rankings show that Tesla scores well on the Momentum metric and offers a favorable price trend in the Long Term.
