    When it comes to electric vehicles (EVs), people often speak highly of Tesla. Many include owning or at least test-driving the latest Tesla model in their wish lists. Critics also rank Tesla among the most popular and best-selling EVs. But why? What has made this automaker, which started in the U.S. and quickly expanded worldwide, so well-regarded?

     

    Excellent Design and Engineering Solutions

    Even skeptics agree that Tesla has transformed the way people view EVs. Before the "Model S," electric vehicles were, to put it mildly, uninspiring. They were unattractive, took an eternity to charge, and garnered little interest. Tesla changed everything with the introduction of the "Roadster" and "Model S." The "Model S" featured a sporty design, Toyota-level safety, and the ability to charge in minutes. It was also fast—faster than any EV before it—which became a hallmark of Tesla's success.

     

    Battery Revolution

    Range has always been a critical factor for those considering EVs. Tesla addressed this by creating a specialized battery pack and its "Supercharger" network. Today, Tesla’s battery technology remains among the best in the industry, with models offering a maximum range of up to 595 km on a single charge.

    However, the battery alone wouldn’t have made Tesla the global brand it is today. The "Supercharger" network has been instrumental, offering fast and free charging (in the U.S.). While the same network isn’t yet available in Lithuania, Tesla owners can use Tesla adapters to charge at accessible stations.

     

    A Car of the Future

    Elon Musk has described Tesla as a "laptop on wheels," a sentiment echoed by fans. Tesla operates more like a software company, continuously improving its products based on customer feedback and providing immediate updates via over-the-air software upgrades. For many, Tesla represents the future of cars—a future that is already here! Read more about EV technology and the future of transportation here.

     

    The Power of the Internet

    Did you know the internet is the only place to purchase a Tesla? Tesla showrooms worldwide serve more as information hubs than dealerships. Buyers can learn everything about Tesla EVs in these stores but cannot purchase them there. Instead, Tesla fans appreciate the ability to customize their vehicles online from the comfort of their homes. According to a Deloitte survey, 60% of car buyers prefer purchasing directly from manufacturers, bypassing traditional dealerships entirely.

     

    Elon Musk

    Tesla’s success is inextricably linked to its leader, Elon Musk. Though a controversial figure, Musk is credited with shaping Tesla into the brand it is today. Tesla is the first and only automaker with a defined mission. Musk outlined this mission in his 2006 "Master Plan." His marketing prowess has also been vital, leveraging every opportunity to promote Tesla. Today, Tesla’s reputation is so established that every project Musk undertakes—whether directly related to Tesla or not—generates publicity for the company’s EVs.
