Tesla's goal is to follow a three-step process for mass-market vehicles: starting with an expensive car at low volume, then a medium-priced car at medium volume, and finally a low-priced car at high volume, with the third generation expected to be around $30,000.

To accelerate the advent of electric transport, we need to create energy-efficient cars that are incredibly light, which is why the Tesla has an all-aluminum body and chassis, applying rocket design techniques to offset the weight of the battery pack.

Supersonic travel will enter the market similarly to other technologies, starting at higher price points and gradually becoming more affordable, much like electric cars and smartphones.

The Tesla Model S has the lowest drag coefficient of any car in its size category, resulting in very low energy usage and a competitive range of about 250 miles on a single charge.

Tesla has developed Supercharging technology, allowing drivers to charge their cars at five times the rate of conventional chargers, making long-distance travel feasible with a network covering California, Nevada, and the Eastern seaboard.

The acceptance rate for jobs at Tesla is lower than that of Harvard, indicating the high demand for positions.
