Nope, it's a gimmick. Once you get enough batteries in it to handle the distance a semi needs to be competitive, the load capacity is under 4tons compared to 19tons for a ice truck. No long haul company in the US will go near this thing with that restrictive of capacity. Tesla had deliberately refused to state the hauling capacity because they know nobody wants it with the specs it has. And they're no way around this unless lithium batteries can somehow gain 4x energy density.
