About Tesla
Founded in 2003, Tesla was created with one primary purpose:
To prove that electric vehicles can be better, quicker and faster than gasoline cars, and that people didn’t need to compromise to drive electric cars.
Today, Tesla builds not only all-electric vehicles but also infinitely scalable clean energy generation and storage products.
Tesla also believes the faster the world stops relying on fossil fuels and moves towards a zero-emission future, the better.
Sounds like a great first car right? Well, you should watch this video first:
