At an interview at Weird Science, an American TV program, Elon Musk explains the success of his company Telsa Motors to Brian Unger: “It’s faster, better acceleration than any Porsche currently in production, and it’s twice the energy efficiency of a Prius.” Telsa Motors is not only the leader of electric car manufacturers, but it distinguishes itself combining speed with energy efficiency. At 38, Telsa Motor’s CEO and Product Architect, Elon Musk, has already lived a life most people can only dream of. Co-founder of PayPal, Space-X, and Telsa Motors, Musk is one of the most fascinating entrepreneurs in the world. He is currently the CEO of Space-X and Telsa Motors, as well as Chairman of SolarCity. Whether on the road or in the sky, Musk has the motor/tech market covered.
All of Musk’s ventures are on the cutting edge of their respective fields. Telsa Motors created an electric sports car, the Roadster, which is 100% electric, and can accelerate from 0 to 60 mph in 3.9 seconds. Not only is it fast and beautiful, the Roadster is twice as energy efficient as a Prius. Two updated versions, the Roadster Sport and the Model S, improve upon the original model and will be released in the near future. Space-X, another of Musk’s companies, develops and manufactures space launch vehicles, with an emphasis on low cost and high reliability. Currently, Space-X has contracts with NASA and the United States Air Force.
Unlike some multi-millionaires who retire early on remote tropical islands, Elon Musk isn’t planning on stopping anytime soon. With his background in physics, his ingenuity, and his eye for innovation, it is no wonder he has accomplished so much. With an already accumulated fortune of over $328 million, Musk always has an eye on the future, and sees space exploration as playing a crucial role in the future preservation of human life. His position at Telsa Motors has allowed him to influence the world and change the way we look at our current mode of transportation. Elon does not only address the issue of being environmentally friendly, which is currently one of the main priorities in every society, but also luxury and speed. The result? Musk has the car industry elegance, speed, performance, and efficiency. He has shown the world that you can still save our planet without having to give anything up. Thus far, Musk’s innovations have allowed for many advances in the fields of technology and transportation, and much is expected of this promising physo-entreprenuer in the future.
