I am not sure that continuing to call it a semi-truck is an accurate description.

What are the guidelines on that description?

This is how the article I posted describes it.

The Aeos is a fully electric, class 7 day-cab urban hauler.

Quote:
The classes range from 1–8.[1][2] Trucks are also classified more broadly by the Department of Transportation's Federal Highway Administration (FHWA), which groups classes 1–3 as light duty, 4–6 as medium duty, and 7–8 as heavy duty.
Maybe it is a semi-truck after all?
