You can read about them here https://driveteslacanada.ca/semi/tesla-shuts-down-orders-semi-updates-website/, but one of the main one that stands out is that it is now 3 independent motors instead of the originally-planned 4 (I guess they are saving the extra motor for the quad-motor Cybertruck
).
Some other specs:
300 or 500 mile range while fully loaded
0-60 time of 20 seconds fully loaded
ability to maintain highway speeds up a 5% grade
energy consumption of less than 2kWh per mile
fast charging to 70% in 30 minutes
fuel savings (estimated) of $200k over 3 years
The author of the article did some calculations to estimate the battery size and maximum charging capability of the Megachargers. The 500 mile range Semi could have a 1 MWh battery and the Megachargers could output 1.5 MW.
