On today's long overdue episode of Quick Charge, we've finally got production specs and pricing on the Tesla Semi first revealed by Elon Musk nine (9) years ago. Will it be a revolution, or a case of too little, too late to make a real impact?

We've also got a Level 4 autonomous mining truck backed by global EV leader BYD that's already being put to work on more than 30 mining sites, a look at the first preproduction Rivian R2s, and a mobile AI data center + BESS and charging solution from Windrose Electric CEO Wen Han that may be the most bonkers, or brilliant thing you see this week.
