Tesla Semi With Walmart Branding Spotted: What's Next For EV Giant's Push Into Semi-Trucks?

Author: Chris Katje | May 06, 2024 01:21pm

One of the future vehicles that could help with growth for Tesla Inc (NASDAQ:TSLA) is the Tesla Semi.

Several companies have placed orders with the electric vehicle giant for the Tesla Semi and one of the largest companies in the world may have just taken its first delivery.

What Happened: Recently, a Tesla Semi featuring Walmart branding and the Walmart Transportation LLC logo on the main cab was spotted at a Walmart Inc (NYSE:WMT) location, with user Accelerating Tech sharing pictures and a video of the vehicle on social media.

Walmart has placed an order with Tesla for hundreds of Tesla Semi units, but it is unknown how many deliveries the company has taken.

Tesla has delivered Tesla Semi units to PepsiCo (NASDAQ:PEP) as one of its key customers. Pepsi said earlier this year the Tesla Semi passed the 1,000 miles in a single day testing point.

Why It's Important: The pictures shared on social media were well received by Tesla influencers on X as Tesla has been relatively quiet about the Tesla Semi segment.

The owned vehicle by Walmart could see the retail giant providing real-life feedback to Tesla to help lead to increased production by this key customer.

Tesla said during its first-quarter earnings call that Semi deliveries are expected to come in late 2025 and into 2026. The expansion of Gigafactory Nevada is also expected to increase Tesla Semi production.

Vice President of Vehicle Engineering Lars Moravy said that engineering of the Tesla Semi is being finalized in a move that will lead to high-volume production.

TSLA Price Action: Tesla shares are up 1.6% to $184.21 on Monday, versus a 52-week trading range of $138.80 to $299.29.
