Regenerative braking, which harnesses the energy released during braking to recharge the batteries, is absent from the Tesla semi-truck.

Regenerative Braking is a brilliant device that Tesla and many other EVs use.

Since they generate energy and cause the car to slow down, Tesla vehicles also employ their electric drive motors as brakes.

Naturally, the Tesla Semi Electric truck slows down thanks to brake energy recovery, which recaptures kinetic energy and stores it as power in the battery pack.

The main purpose of electricity and energy is to move the wheels rather than to burn it.

The new Semi truck's range is then increased by Tesla using a regenerative energy system.

Three electric motors are present in the semi-truck, although only one is used for most of the drive.

The other two, however, are mostly employed to accelerate and exert more force.

Elon Musk, the CEO of Tesla, stated in November 2017 that the Tesla Semi will include four electric motors that are identical to those found in the Tesla Model 3.
