Tesla has recently made a significant update to its Model 3 Performance lineup, offering buyers the choice between summer and all-season tires at the time of purchase. This new option provides customers with the flexibility to choose the type of tires that best suit their driving needs and preferences. This update was quietly introduced by Tesla in the United States, giving Model 3 Performance buyers the opportunity to customize their vehicle even further. The ability to select between summer and all-season tires allows drivers to optimize their driving experience based on factors such as weather conditions, road surfaces, and driving…

Tesla Breaks Records with Best March Ever in Germany Tesla has marked a significant milestone in Germany, achieving its best March ever with a remarkable 315% year-over-year increase in new vehicle registrations. The electric vehicle giant celebrated this achievement on Tuesday, expressing gratitude to German consumers for driving a surge in demand that has reshaped its presence in Europe’s largest auto market. Recent data from the German road traffic agency (KBA) reveals that Tesla registered 9,252 units in March 2026. This single month of exceptional performance accounted for approximately 72% of Tesla’s total registrations for the entire first quarter. The…

The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) has officially closed its investigation into Tesla’s Actually Smart Summon (ASS) feature after over a year of scrutiny. This marks a regulatory win for the electric vehicle maker. The probe, which was opened last January, looked into roughly 2.59 million Tesla vehicles equipped with the feature across the Model S, Model X, Model 3, and Model Y lineups. ASS allows owners to move their parked Tesla remotely via a smartphone app, directing the vehicle short distances in parking lots or private property while the driver supervises from the phone. The feature drew attention…

Intel, the American chipmaker, has recently announced its partnership with Terafab to design and build a cutting-edge facility. This facility will produce AI chips to supply Elon Musk’s companies, SpaceX and Tesla. Musk’s ambitious plans for a “robot army” that includes self-driving cars and humanoid robots require advanced AI chips. Additionally, Musk intends to launch data centers into space, further emphasizing the need for specialized chips. The collaboration with Intel comes as a relief to Musk, as he had been vocal about the challenges of building a chip factory on his own. Musk had expressed concerns about the chip-making industry’s…

Tesla has never been one to follow traditional norms, and their recent decision to increase the prices of the last Model S and Model X units in inventory is further proof of their unconventional approach. The flagship EVs were officially discontinued earlier this month after over a decade in production, leaving only a limited number of new models available for purchase. Initially, there were hundreds of vehicles available across the United States, but as demand for these iconic vehicles grew, the inventory quickly dwindled. Instead of reducing prices on the remaining inventory as a traditional car dealer might do, Tesla…

SpaceX is gearing up for what could potentially be the biggest stock market debut in history, and they are shaking things up with their approach. In a meeting with bankers on Monday night, the company revealed plans to reserve a significant portion of shares specifically for regular retail investors—ordinary people rather than just large hedge funds. According to a report by Reuters, SpaceX’s CFO Bret Johnsen emphasized that retail investors will play a crucial role in this launch, more so than in any other IPO we have seen. This move is a deliberate gesture of gratitude towards the fans and…

Tesla, Inc. (TSLA) recently unveiled its production and delivery numbers for the first quarter of 2026, as well as the sales figures for its energy storage business. In Q1 2026, Tesla managed to deliver a total of 358,023 electric vehicles while producing 408,386 units at its Gigafactories located in the United States, China, and Germany.

On the energy storage front, Tesla Energy sold 8.8 GWh of energy products, marking a decline of approximately…

Tesla has made history by claiming the top spot in South Korea’s imported car market for the first time in a single quarter. Data from the Korea Automobile Importers and Distributors Association (KAIDA) shows that Tesla sold an impressive 20,964 units between January and March 2026, marking a remarkable 335.1 percent increase compared to the same period last year. This significant achievement signifies a major shift in a market that has long been dominated by German luxury brands. Tesla’s success has surpassed that of BMW (19,368 units) and Mercedes-Benz (15,862 units), turning the traditional “Big Two” race into a three-way…

But the big question remains: how sustainable is this strategy long-term? With Chinese EVs flooding the global market and offering feature-rich vehicles at competitive prices, American automakers may find themselves in a tough spot. The appeal of a stripped-down, no-frills vehicle may not be enough to compete with the bells and whistles offered by other manufacturers. Additionally, as consumer expectations continue to evolve and demand for technology integration in vehicles grows, the “less-for-less” approach may not hold up. Consumers may not be willing to sacrifice convenience and comfort for a lower price tag. It will be interesting to see how…

Tesla has achieved a significant milestone with its Supercharger network, surpassing 80,000 stalls worldwide. This achievement comes after the addition of 10,000 new stalls in just 9 months.

The rapid expansion of the Supercharger network is a testament to Tesla’s commitment to providing convenient and efficient charging solutions for electric vehicle owners. With the increasing popularity of electric vehicles, the demand for charging infrastructure has also been on the rise. Tesla has been at the forefront of addressing this demand by continuously expanding its…
