After years of delays, US automaker Tesla is expected on Thursday to deliver its first battery-powered semi truck, with which it hopes to get a jump start on the nascent electric heavy duty vehicle market by offering longer ranges without recharging.

The Elon Musk-led company is scheduled to hand over the keys to its first electric truck -- dubbed"Semi" -- at its Nevada manufacturing plant to multinational food company PepsiCo.

The competition has also begun to roll out their deliveries, and have many orders of their own waiting to fill. With the ability to travel up to 500 miles without recharging, long-distance trips in electric trucks would be much more feasible, allowing drivers to return to warehouses in the same day. The most populous US state, California, has passed a law phasing out combustion engine trucks, which has since been followed by other states.Companies are also facing pressure to have more environmentally conscious reputations.

South Africa can't have things like this cause our country can't keep the electricity on 😂

Should focus more on rail. These heavy goods vehicles are tearing up the roads.
