Telsa will unveil 2 Electric Trucks

Tesla is diving into the trucking industry.

Tesla CEO Elon Musk on Thursday said the company would unveil a semitruck in September and a pickup truck in 18 to 24 months.

"Tesla Semi truck unveil set for September," Musk wrote onTwitter. "Team has done an amazing job. Seriously next level."

This isn't the first time we've heard Tesla express interest in building a semitruck. Musk first announced the semitruck project in his "Master Plan, Part Deux," released in July.

"We believe the Tesla Semi will deliver a substantial reduction in the cost of cargo transport, while increasing safety and making it really fun to operate," Musk wrote in the plan.

Musk said in February that the company was making progress on its semitruck. Jerome Guillen, Tesla's vice president of programs, is leading the company's semitruck product.
