Model Y 1

Last Friday, Elon Musk revealed Tesla's brand new car: the Model Y. 

He starts with a review of their progress since making the very first car, a roadster, in February of 2008. The sec0nd car took three months to complete. But by 2018, Tesla had made  550,000 cars.

That last year was "intense," "really hard," aging him "five years in just one."


Now that the company is making solar panels, energy storage batteries, and electric cars, he says we have a  fully sustainable future, one that you can feel optimistic about: "I think it really matters," There's now a global network of 12,000 superchargers in 36 countries.

Elon says it's extremely rewarding to see the rest of the car industry going electric, and they've open sourced all their patents - made them freely available.
