Elon started Tesla with one mission:

Make transportation sustainable.....and make electric cars so good that the rest of the world had no choice but to follow

At the time, almost nobody wanted to do EVs and seriously bet on it

Electric cars were seen as slow, boring, ugly and impractical

Elon flipped that completely

He made electric cars fast
He made them desirable
He made them fun
He made people actually WANT one

And once Tesla proved it could be done, every major automaker on Earth had to start taking electric seriously

Elon literally dragged the entire auto industry into the electric future
