Tesla's Ambitious Market and Product Plans
Turning to Tesla, Musk shared bold forecasts, including the possibility of Tesla reaching a market cap of $25 to $30 trillion, which would be eight times larger than Microsoft’s current valuation. While acknowledging the difficulty, Musk admits it's not impossible, highlighting his confidence in Tesla’s trajectory.
Tesla's recent sales figures are impressive—more EVs sold in August than the next four automakers combined in the US—and new product launches like the upcoming Roadster continue to excite Musk, who describes the vehicle as "something beyond a car." The release of the Tesla diner, offering locally sourced food and a futuristic ambiance, exemplifies Tesla's innovative approach to brand experience.
