Tesla Partners with Uber Freight to Accelerate Semi Truck Adoption
Tesla has forged a strategic partnership with Uber Freight to expedite the deployment of its Semi electric trucks. The collaboration introduces the Dedicated EV Fleet Accelerator Program, targeting the primary barrier to adoption—high upfront costs. Fleet buyers will benefit from discounts on Tesla Semis, while Uber Freight provides optimized freight contracts and route planning aligned with Tesla's Megacharger network.
The initiative ensures immediate operational viability for carriers, with dedicated shipping routes within Uber Freight's network. This guarantees revenue predictability for fleet operators and consistent access to zero-emission trucks for shippers. The partnership marks Tesla's expansion into commercial logistics and strengthens Uber Freight's sustainability credentials.
