I think that Teslas semi-electric truck prototype, which is being driven on the back with the trailer, is now among the most interesting sounds in EVs.

due to just how fast this thing is going to get to speeds relative to regular large trucks.

CEO Elon Musk noted the Tesla Semi will be able to reach highway speeds in around 20 seconds when fully loaded,
