Tesla Inc. will provide a highly anticipated technology update Sept. 22 when Elon Musk takes center stage at an event the CEO has dropped hints about for months — and which has helped propel the company’s sky-high valuation.

Bulldozers and other construction equipment have been at work for weeks at the location of Tesla’s future $1.1 billion electric vehicle factory in southeast Travis County, but a site plan filed by the company is providing the first public indication of the facility’s huge eventual footprint.

Tesla, a company best known for its industry-first electric vehicles and unconventional CEO, is scheduled to enter the tractor OEM space in the coming years. Here are photos of its electric Semi Class 8, which was unveiled in 2017 and is slated to enter production in 2021.

Tesla Inc. plans to ship cars made at its Shanghai factory to other countries in Asia and Europe, according to people familiar with the matter, shifting its strategy for the plant to largely focus on supplying the local market.

Tesla Inc. shares slid on Sept. 8 after the electric-vehicle maker missed out on being included in the S&P 500 Index, taking investors who had bet on its entry to the benchmark by surprise.

Before Tesla Inc. CEO Elon Musk returned to the U.S. after a three-day visit to Germany, he made a final stopover to meet with one of his biggest competitors — Volkswagen AG CEO Herbert Diess.

Tesla Inc. fell as much as 4.2% in early Sept. 4 trading, heading for its first four-day losing streak since pandemic fears were at their height in mid-March.

Tesla Inc. shares are now officially in correction territory, in a week that saw the electric-vehicle maker announce a share sale that could dilute its value and a top holder say it would cut its stake nearly in half.

Tesla Inc. plans to sell as much as $5 billion of shares, capitalizing on its high-flying price and on a recent stock split that made it more accessible to individual investors.

Already plumped up by big rallies in 2020, stocks for Apple and Tesla popped again Aug. 31, surpassing record highs after the companies' stock splits took effect.
