Inside Tesla: Supercharging the Electric Revolution traces the company’s story from fledgling startup to EV juggernaut and explores the range of its products, the breadth of its manufacturing capabilities, and its irrefutable impact on the modern transportation landscape.

Today, no company is more closely identified with the electric vehicle (EV) than Tesla, Inc. Tesla’s vehicles are a ubiquitous sight on the highways of Los Angeles, and Tesla ownership continues to grow throughout North America and around the world. The company’s introduction of reliable, attractive, and technologically advanced EVs—along with an efficient new infrastructure for powering them—has prompted the general public and industry professionals alike to reconsider the long-dismissed promise of alternative power. 

Following the release of its first offering, Roadster, Tesla unveiled Model S in 2009. Designed and engineered specifically as an electric vehicle, the sedan revolutionized EVs, making them not only a viable alternative to petroleum-fueled vehicles but also highly desirable. Each subsequent Tesla model has been announced with great fanfare and met with great zeal, growing an enthusiasm for the brand that often borders on fanaticism. In less than two decades, Tesla has succeeded in disrupting a global industry more than 130 years old.
