Founded in July 2003 as Tesla Motors, the company’s name is a tribute to electrical and mechanical engineer Nikola Tesla. The firm shortened its name to Tesla, Inc in February 2017.

The company’s first car, the Tesla Roadster, was launched in 2008 and featured Tesla’s proprietary battery technology and electric powertrain. Since then, the firm has developed a number of other electric-powered vehicles and expanded its charging network worldwide. While best-known for its cars, Tesla also focuses heavily on energy storage and solar-panel manufacturing.

Today, the business runs a number of production and assembly plants, with its main vehicle manufacturing facility, the Tesla Factory, located in Fremont, California. Other facilities include Giga New York, Giga Nevada and Giga Shanghai.

Tesla global vehicle sales rose from 245,240 units in 2018 to 367,849 units in 2019, representing a growth of nearly 50 per cent. In early 2020, the company reached a milestone of one million electric cars produced, while its Model 3 ranked as the all-time best-selling EV globally, with more than 500,000 units delivered.

On January 10, 2020, with a market capitalisation of $86bn, Tesla became the most valuable American automaker to ever exist. On January 29, it surpassed Volkswagen (VOW3) as the world's second-most valuable automaker by market capitalisation. On July 1, Tesla reached a market capitalisation of $206bn, overtaking Toyota (7203) as the world's most valuable automaker.

After reporting GAAP profitability for four consecutive quarters for the first time from July 2019 to June 2020, Tesla became eligible for inclusion in the S&P 500 Index (US500).

Capital.com is one of the best stock trading platforms I’ve used. The UX and UI on both the mobile app and web platform are outstanding, making it incredibly easy to navigate. They’ve built a vibrant community of traders and investors, and their UAE team really stands out for delivering an exceptional trading experience.

Great app! I requested some features to be added, such as analysis tools, and they delivered. Amazing job! The agents are always helpful and reply quickly. It’s not 5 stars because, at times, some less experienced agents may say it’s impossible to fulfill the request or fix the problem while another agent, like Angel, quickly escalated the issue to the necessary team/person/department and resolved it

This is an excellent platform. The stop loss and take profit work very well; however, when the changes are very fast like at the beginning of the session, the stop loss does not work. If this defect is corrected it will be the perfect platform.

Efficiency. When creating the account, it was smooth, efficient from start to finish. Verification of documents also was done the same day, unlike other platforms where you have to wait a day or two.
