In 2014, we made a commitment to invest $3.5 billion in Nevada with our first Gigafactory. Our goal was to build a facility capable of producing 35 GWh of battery cells annually—enough to manufacture about 500,000 vehicles per year.

In the 20 years since Tesla was founded in San Carlos, California, we have grown from a long-shot startup to the state’s largest manufacturing employer and the world’s leading electric vehicle maker.

Model S 于 2012 年推出，为特斯拉车辆的安全特性确立了标准：高强度的安全乘员舱、车身前后巨大的溃缩缓冲区，以及强化的电池包。2014 年，Model S 成为为数不多获得欧盟新车安全评鉴协会（Euro NCAP）五星评级和美国国家公路交通安全管理局（NHTSA）所有测试类别五星评级的车辆，为当时汽车行业树立了新的标杆。

Model 3 荣获 Green NCAP 五星评级，加权综合评分达 9.8/10。Green NCAP 是一家帮助消费者评估车辆可持续性的独立机构，其评估项目包括车辆能源效率，以及温室气体和空气污染物的排放。

特斯拉充电连接器投入使用已 10 年有余，总充电里程达 200 亿英里（约 320 亿公里），是北美最成熟的充电连接器。特斯拉连接器采用一体化超薄封装设计，无任何活动部件，可支持实现交流充电及高达 1 兆瓦的直流充电功能。尺寸仅为联合充电系统（CCS）连接器的一半，而充电功率则是CCS连接器的两倍。

We are pleased to welcome Joe Gebbia to Tesla’s Board of Directors, effective September 25, 2022.

特斯拉始终致力于通过不断更新迭代的车辆设计，将道路上已经非常安全的特斯拉车辆变得更加安全。如今，Model Y 成为特斯拉又一款获得欧盟新车安全评鉴协会（Euro NCAP）五星安全评价的车型。

The California Department of Fair Employment and Housing (DFEH) intends to file a lawsuit against Tesla alleging systematic racial discrimination and harassment. This follows a three-year investigation during which the DFEH—whose mission is supposedly to protect workers—has never once raised any concern about current workplace practices at Tesla. Rather, the lawsuit appears focused on alleged misconduct by production associates at the Fremont factory that took place between 2015 and 2019.
