Tesla (NASDAQ:TSLA) (NASDAQ: TSLA) is an American company that designs, manufactures and sells electric vehicles, energy generation and energy storage products. Founded in 2003 by Martin Eberhard and Marc Tarpenning, Tesla grew into a vertically integrated mobility and clean‑energy company with Elon Musk serving as its chief executive officer. The company’s stated mission is to accelerate the world’s transition to sustainable energy, reflected in its combined focus on electric drivetrains, battery technology, renewable energy products and software.
Tesla’s automotive business includes a lineup of battery‑electric vehicles and related services. Notable models include the Model S, Model 3, Model X and Model Y, with additional vehicle programs such as the Cybertruck, Semi and Roadster in various stages of development or production planning. Beyond vehicles, Tesla develops and sells energy products — including rooftop solar, Solar Roof systems and energy storage solutions such as Powerwall, Powerpack and Megapack — and operates a global network of fast‑charging Superchargers. Software and services play a central role in Tesla’s offering, with features such as over‑the‑air software updates and driver assistance systems marketed under Autopilot and Full Self‑Driving (FSD) capabilities.
Tesla manufactures vehicles and energy products at several global facilities, commonly called Gigafactories, and serves customers across North America, Europe, China and other markets. The company has emphasized in‑house battery and powertrain development, large‑scale manufacturing, and direct sales to consumers rather than a traditional dealer network. Tesla’s combination of hardware, software and energy services positions it as a prominent player in the electrification and renewable energy sectors.
