Teslas

Teslas is a term commonly used to refer to electric vehicles produced by Tesla, Inc., an American automaker and energy company. The core passenger-car lineup includes Model S, Model 3, Model X, and Model Y, with the Roadster as an early model and other variants also offered. The company launched its first production vehicle, the Roadster, in 2008 and has since expanded into trucks and semis with the Tesla Semi, as well as plans for other vehicles such as the Cybertruck. Teslas are powered by lithium-ion battery packs and electric motors, and most models include driver-assistance features marketed as Autopilot or Full Self-Driving.

Tesla, Inc. was founded as Tesla Motors in 2003 by Martin Eberhard and Marc Tarpenning; Elon Musk joined as a major investor and later became chief executive officer. The company pursues a strategy combining electric vehicles, energy storage, and solar energy products. It has built a global network of Supercharger fast-charging stations and manufacturing facilities in several countries. The business has faced production delays, regulatory scrutiny, and debates over autonomous-driving claims, but it has grown to be a major force in the automotive industry.

In physics, the tesla is the SI unit of magnetic flux density, named in honor of Nikola Tesla. One tesla equals one weber per square meter and is used to quantify magnetic fields in science and engineering. The plural teslas are simply multiple units of the same measure.
