History

Tesla, Inc. was founded in 2003 by Martin Eberhard and Marc Tarpenning, focusing on premium electric vehicles. Elon Musk led the first funding round in 2004 and later became CEO. Tesla revolutionized the automotive industry through battery innovation and has developed successive bestsellers: the Roadster, Model S, Model 3, Model X, and Model Y. In December 2021, Tesla relocated its headquarters from Palo Alto to Austin, Texas.
