Description

Tamara Warren, the Verge's transportation editor, talks with Kara Swisher and Lauren Goode about Tesla's recent product event in which the Silicon Valley car company unveiled new electric semi trucks — and a new version of its Roadster sports car, which starts at $200,000. Warren explains why Elon Musk & company are getting into trucking at a time when they're still having trouble with on-time deliveries all the Model 3 sedans they had promised consumers. She also talks about the potential cost savings of electric trucks for retailers like Walmart, the future of Tesla's autonomous driving ambitions and why she thinks it's unlikely Tesla would sell itself to a big automaker or another tech company anytime soon.
