Tesla, Inc. is an American multinational automotive and clean energy company. Headquartered in Austin, Texas, it designs, manufactures, and sells battery electric vehicles (BEVs), stationary battery energy storage devices from home to grid-scale, solar panels and solar shingles, and related products and services.
Tesla popularized long-range EVs with the Roadster, then Model S, 3, X, and Y — plus Cybertruck. Over-the-air updates, Supercharging, and software-defined features distinguish it from traditional automakers. Used Tesla shopping is as much about battery health, Autopilot hardware, and recall/software history as about trim levels.
