It sure is a tall order 😂
Anyone can buy Tesla stock right now and come along for the ride.
There will inevitably be some bumps along the way, but, with a truly immense amount of work, I think these goals can be accomplished.
The final boss in Musk's 2025 Comp Plan is achieving $400B in EBITDA.
Perspective:
$238.24 billion: Saudi Arabian Oil Company (Saudi Aramco) achieved the highest annual EBITDA on record in 2022, driven by elevated global oil prices, higher sales volumes, and strong refining margins amid geopolitical tensions and post-pandemic demand recovery.
This figure surpasses other major companies like ExxonMobil ($102.59 billion in 2022) and NVIDIA ($34.48 billion in fiscal 2024).
For context, Aramco's 2023 EBITDA was approximately $236.81 billion, still leading but lower than 2022's peak.
Let that sink in.

Abruptly ending the energy tax credits would threaten America’s energy independence and the reliability of our grid - we urge the senate to enact legislation with a sensible wind down of 25D and 48e. This will ensure continued speedy deployment of over 60 GW capacity per year to support AI and domestic manufacturing growth.

Sony just announced at CES today that they are starting to accept orders for their first EV called Afeela, which starts at $89k with deliveries beginning in mid-2026.
This Sony EV will be made in the US and will cost more than a Tesla Model S. Maybe it's worth it. I'll have to find out after test driving one.
The key features are similar to the latest EVs from China:
-Intelligent driving
-In-cabin AI voice assistant
-Multiple large screens
-Premium sound systems
-Exterior display screens
I think all EVs will have similar hardware technology in the future, much like the smartphone industry. Software capabilities will be the main differentiating factor.
The Sony EV will be sold directly to customers, bypassing the traditional dealership model.
Why are new EV brands in North America going with direct-to-consumer (DTC), despite knowing there could be legal battles over this decision?

99% of cars will be electric and autonomous in the future.
Manually-driven gasoline cars will be like riding a horse while using a flip phone. Still happens, but it’s rare.
NEWS: Less than 1% of EV owners switch back to gas-powered cars after making the purchase, according to a new Global EV Driver Survey, which includes over 23,000 people from 18 countries.
"Reports of declining EV popularity are greatly exaggerated,” says Petter Haugneland, Assistant Secretary General of The Norwegian EV Association.
Results show that lower operating costs are the most important motivation for buying an EV. “This should serve as an eye-opener for policymakers worldwide. While a vibrant electric vehicle market is crucial for reducing climate emissions from road transport, achieving this goal hinges on making EVs an even more affordable option for all,” says Ellen Hiep, board member of the Dutch Electric Vehicle Drivers Association.
