    Not that I’m a Tesla apologist, but keep in mind they are more than just a car company. Also in their portfolio:

    • Solar panels
    • Residential power storage (Powerwalls)
    • Commercial/utility grade power storage (Megapacks)
    • Vehicle insurance
    • SuperCharger network
    • Robotics

    Granted, things like robotics are clearly mostly hype at this point, but they have sold & service Megapacks in countries including the US, Canada, and Australia. Their Supercharger network is also seen as a valuable asset given it’s really the only highly reliable nationwide one. Add to that the fact that it’s now an open standard that other EV companies are adopting, and non-Tesla EVs can now charge at many Supercharger stations, and the value of that asset can’t be understated.

    I have no idea what the Tesla EV revenue is compared to all this other stuff, but it’s all likely helping boost the value one way or another…

      Being an insurance company is more a necessity because otherwise that low poly draft that they accidentally put on sale would be uninsurable

      Auto segment is about 80% of their revenue, with the remaining 20% being an about even split of the services and energy gen / storage segments.

      With ~$100b in total revenue, the percentages are right around where the billions are per segment.

      Energy gen/storage as well as services went up a bit in revenue for 2024, but auto also went down, keeping their totals about the same from 2023.
