What is Tesla?
Tesla is a modern electric car company founded by Elon Musk, the first or second person in the world depending on how its shares are quoted on Wall Street.
Tesla and her cars
The company has increased its popularity in recent years and thanks to the enormous technological progress its electric cars seem to be the most efficient and their price is not terribly high compared to what these cars represent.
Currently, Tesla has 4 models in its permanent assortment (model S, model Y, model 3, model X) and one model in the preorder (CYBERTRUCK).
THE FUTURE OF TESLA
Tesla in 2021 recorded the highest number of cars sold, which amounted to almost one million units, it was possible thanks to the increased production of these cars in the USA and China. Even analysts did not predict such a large increase in the sales of these cars, which, compared to 2020, increased by 87 per cent in 2021, which is an impressive result even for such a wealthy company. And the development plans mentioned by Musk, based on the creation of factories also in Europe (Germany) or in Texas. Musk said Tesla is expected to sell up to 20 million cars a year in the next decade.
Why cant there be such a big sale?
The interest in purchasing cars is generally growing every year. However, 20 million a year seems to be impossible to achieve in the next decade. Most of the chipsets necessary for building cars as well as reusable batteries in tesla are made in China. The conflict between the US and China is slowly developing, as evidenced by the relocation of US troops to the Pacific. It seems impossible for China not to increase prices for its services to American companies, which may cause a significant increase in prices for building batteries or chipsets, which will ultimately lead to an increase in the prices of Tesla’s cars, which may cause sales to remain at a similar level or even fall. In addition, in the coming years, the number of materials necessary to build these cars may be significantly reduced, which may mean that the production of Tesla cars will not be so dynamic. The direct lack of environmental friendliness may also deter them from buying Tesla cars. Tesla has been proud for years that their cars are the most ecological of all, however, to charge their batteries, they mainly use non-renewable energy which has nothing to do with environmental protection, plus their batteries contain many substances and elements that cannot be decomposed, so they need to be stored which is also very bad for the environment.
Summarize
Tesla will certainly increase the annual sales of cars in the coming years, it is inevitable, however, it seems to me that sales of 20 million units per year are unattainable for them in the next decade.
