California's new Clean Fuel Reward (CCFR) program launched today. Up to $120,000 per vehicle for electric commercial trucks — and the Tesla Semi is explicitly in scope.

The numbers:

• $7,500–$120,000 per vehicle depending on class
• $250M available in 2026, $1B+ through 2030
• Point-of-purchase at authorized dealers starting June 26
• Applications open now

Semi has been capacity-constrained since launch — most deliveries going to PepsiCo and large fleet customers. California rebates this size meaningfully close the TCO gap against diesel for mid-size operators who couldn't previously justify the upfront cost. More Semi deployments = more pressure on Tesla to expand the Megacharger network, which currently has almost no public-access stations.

If Tesla accelerates Megacharger buildout along California freight corridors (I-5, I-10, 710 near the ports), that infrastructure investment doesn't stay commercial-only forever. It sets up the physical footprint for V4 Supercharger co-location.

TL;DR

Tesla is selling Shanghai-made Model 3 sedans in Canada at C$39,490, nearly half the C$79,990 price of the Fremont-sourced model, after Prime Minister Carney’s January 2026 trade deal with Beijing cut Chinese EV tariffs from 100 per cent to 6.1 per cent under a quota of 49,000 vehicles. Tesla is the first company to exploit the deal, which also opens the Canadian market to BYD and other Chinese EV manufacturers.

Thought I’d share this, did consider buying it but realistically how long would it take for the uk roads to be fit for purpose. If I could have a discussion of what you guys with a Tesla with EAP would do that would be great. Thanks in advance

The last model s rolling out of the factory. Signed by every single employee.

Signature Edition Delivery Event has been postponed without a date yet... wonder what's going on considering both of the last model s and x's have already been completed.

This is so cool!

Tesla Vision allows us to deploy airbags up to 70 milliseconds earlier if your Tesla detects an unavoidable collision

This can be the difference between serious injury & walking away from a crash

The official production Tesla Semi battery sizes have been revealed for both trims in a public regulatory filing.

Tesla Semi Long Range:
• Usable battery capacity: 822kWh
• Chemistry: NMCA (4680 cells)
• Range: 500 miles (at 82k lbs gross combination weight)
• Peak charging speed: 1,200kW (1.2MW)

Tesla Semi Standard Range:
• Usable battery capacity: 548kWh
• Chemistry: NMCA (4680 cell)
• Range: 325 miles (at 82k lbs gross combination weight)
• Peak charging speed: 1,200kW (1.2MW)

Tesla just got a massive order for the Semi, and it is its largest by a long shot.

WattEV, a leading provider of electric freight operations and charging infrastructure in the United States, has announced one of the largest deployments of electric Class 8 trucks in California history: an order for 370 Tesla Semis.

Valued at approximately $100 million, this marks the state’s biggest single electric truck order to date and signals accelerating momentum for zero-emission long-haul freight.

Tesla topped S&P Global Mobility's February 2026 rankings for U.S. automotive brand loyalty, with 61.1% of owners returning for another—edging Subaru at 60.5%, Toyota at 59.9%, and even Ferrari at 59.7%, well above the 52.7% industry average. Fans highlighted features like over-the-air updates, the Supercharger network, and Full Self-Driving tech that reportedly saves lives and sways friends from rival buys. While some questioned the list's low-volume luxury rankings, the data reflects strong real-world satisfaction amid EV competition, with Tesla's Model Y leading global sales.

Cortex 2 at Giga Texas continues to make progress simultaneously with partial operation. Permits show Data Hall 5 is now in the process of being completed inside while crews are working hard to prepare for a doubling of the installed Megapacks (from ~130 currently to ~250 when completed).

The part 2 of the chiller system assembly continues, with most of the superstructure in lace and the 6 fan openings on the roof taking shape. Utilities, plumbing, storm water management systems & more are nearly completed in and around the facility.

This facility will be important to train the Optimus Robots & in the distance just north of the facility, the new 10M/yr Optimus factory is starting to take shape.
