Tesla Semi Stays Stable During Extreme Ice Test

The Tesla Semi has been spotted undergoing low-friction winter testing, where it remained stable during an aggressive left-right steering maneuver on pure ice despite the trailer fishtailing. Tesla’s Vehicle Dynamics Control (VDC) uses high-resolution sensing and independent multi-motor torque control to counter trailer forces that can cause conventional trucks to jackknife.

Advanced vehicle dynamics could significantly improve safety for heavy-duty electric trucks operating in challenging winter conditions.

Watching the trailer slide is nerve-racking… then you realize the truck is calmer than most of us trying to walk across an icy parking lot.
