What could be the name of the new Semi-Truck?

HGV or lorry.

Trucks are little things, why you call it a semi truck when its bigger than 1 truck is rather odd. You should call them double trucks. I know the trailer is the other half but the name makes it sound smaller, half the size of a truck.

Haven't heard any mention of an 'Artic' yet...;)

It is supposed to be tractor and semi-trailer. As the trailer is not a full trailer as it requires the tractor to support the front of it.
 
Model P has always been the best option for the pickup truck.
Why not Tesla PT (Platoon Truck) or Tesla PST (Platoon Semi-Truck)?

"Semi" is what it is called on the western side of the USA. On the East, we call it a Tractor-Trailer. In the south it is called an 18-wheeler:
