Tesla is set to launch its Semitruck in Europe, nearly a decade after the product’s initial unveiling. This move comes as the company faces declining sales in multiple markets.
Key Developments
- Tesla has hired Usuf Schermo to head its Semitruck operations in Europe.
- Schermo previously worked at Volta Trucks, an electric Semitruck manufacturer, as the head of sales in Germany.
- His new title at Tesla is Head of Business Operations at Tesla Semi EMEA, suggesting potential expansion into the Middle East and Africa.
Expansion Plans
The news of the European expansion comes as Tesla prepares to roll out its first batch of Semitrucks from its Nevada Gigafactory by the end of the year. The facility has the capacity to produce over 50,000 units annually. However, production was recently disrupted by U.S. President Donald Trump’s tariffs on China.
Challenges Ahead
Tesla’s European expansion comes at a challenging time, with the company facing declining sales in the region. This decline is attributed to various factors, including Elon Musk’s endorsement of right-wing political ideals and his association with the Trump administration.
