Tesla Truck And The Million-Mile Battery: A Perfect Pickup Match?

The million-mile electric car battery has been making headlines of late and it would be perfect in the upcoming Tesla Electric pickup trucks. Is it actually being designed for the Tesla Truck?

Back in April of this year, Elon Musk said that a new battery pack designed to last at least one million miles would be available next year. This pack, likely the result of work by Tesla battery researcher Jeff Dahn and possibly connected to Tesla's acquisition of Maxwell Technologies, would take the Tesla Truck to the next level.

Trucks are known for reliability and dependability. In fact, reliability often tops the list for truck buyers. Performance and other aspects generally rank much lower. How can Tesla assure electric truck buyers that the Tesla Truck will be reliable? Quite simply by offering a million-mile battery with a warranty to back it up.
