Tesla Unveils New Electric Semi-Truck, Sports Car

Fast and powerful...

Elon Musk and Tesla's new electric semi-truck.

You'll often hear automakers brag of a sports car's zero-to-60 performance but less often for a big-rig truck.

Last Thursday, Tesla boasted of both, Peter Valdes-Dapena reports on cnn.com.

Tesla revealed an all-new version of its Roadster sports car that can go from a stop to 60 miles an hour in 1.9 seconds, a figure that would make it the fastest-accelerating production car ever, Valdes-Dapena wrote.

That was after Tesla unveiled its new semi-truck, which CEO Elon Musk said can go zero-to-60 in five seconds with an empty trailer, Valdes-Dapena added.
