1. Founded by Engineers — Not Elon Musk
Tesla was founded in 2003 by Martin Eberhard and Marc Tarpenning — not Elon Musk. Musk joined later as an investor and became CEO in 2008.

4. No Dealerships — Direct Sales Model
Tesla doesn’t use car dealerships. Instead, it sells directly to customers through its own stores and website — a first for a major automaker.
5. The Model Names Spell “S3XY”
Tesla’s lineup is a joke by Elon Musk:
Model S, 3, X, and Y → spells “S3XY.” (The Model 3 was originally supposed to be “Model E,” but Ford owned the name.)

Tesla cars come with Autopilot, an advanced driver-assistance system, and an optional Full Self-Driving (FSD) mode that keeps improving via software updates.

8. Over-the-Air Software Updates
Tesla vehicles receive software updates just like smartphones, adding new features, games, and even performance boosts without visiting a service center.
9. Energy & Solar Division
Tesla isn’t just a car company — it also sells solar panels, Powerwall batteries, and energy storage systems, aiming for a full clean-energy ecosystem.
10. Record-Breaking Valuation
Tesla became the most valuable car company in the world, surpassing Toyota, with a market cap of over $1 trillion in 2021 — a first in automotive history.
