Happy Earth Day! Thank you to our owners, employees & advocates for helping us build a world of amazing abundance 🌎❤️

Q1 2026 Shareholder Update ir.tesla.com/#quarterly-dis… We continued to make meaningful progress on the build out of the infrastructure & AI software that underpins our Robotaxi & future robotics businesses in Q1. That meant commencing the ramp of new factories across AI compute, battery & battery materials, as well as preparing lines for start of production of Megapack 3, Cybercab & Tesla Semi. Demand for our vehicles continued to grow in APAC & South America markets, with a rebound of demand in EMEA markets & North America. As trade and geopolitics become more uncertain, we're further regionalizing and vertically integrating critical supply chains to ensure access to key materials & componentry in each region across vehicle, energy & AI. Automotive – Optimizing our vehicle product portfolio with an emphasis on vehicles designed for a fully autonomous future – More affordable trims of Model 3/Y & rollout of Model Y L in markets outside of China – Began deliveries of Cybertruck in the UAE – Volume production of Cybercab & Tesla Semi this year Energy Generation & Storage – Good progress with new Megafactory outside Houston (will produce Megapack 3 for Megablock). Start of production on track for later this year – We began meaningful customer deployments of Tesla’s first in-house designed solar panel produced at Giga New York Robotics – Preparations for our first large-scale Optimus factory will begin shortly in Q2. First-gen line designed for 1M robots/year will replace Model S/X lines in Fremont Factory, second-gen line is being prepared at Giga Texas (long-term annual capacity of 10M robots/year) AI Training Compute – Cortex 2 is now online & has started running training workloads – Also ramping on-site training infrastructure to ensure sufficient compute resources for AI products & services – Continuing with custom silicon development (Dojo 3) to reduce training cost over time Battery – Ramping new battery & material factories, including LFP cells in Nevada, cathode material & lithium refining in Texas – Battery vendor cell availability continues to be a limiting factor on ramping vehicle production, so we're working on initiatives to de-bottleneck, including using 4680 cells at Giga Berlin Other Supporting Infrastructure – Giga New York is now producing V4 Supercharging cabinets (3x power density & 2x the number of stalls vs V3) – Alongside the ramp of Tesla Semi, we're deploying public Megachargers, including our first one in SoCal – Over 2,200 new Supercharger stalls, growing the network 19% YoY AI Software – FSD 14.3 launched in April – Upgraded Reinforcement Learning (RL) stage to better handle long-tail edge cases, enhanced the neural network vision encoder for sharper perception in low-vis scenarios & rewrote the AI compiler to accelerate model iterations & cut inference latency by 20% (faster reaction time for FSD!) This accelerates our efforts to eventually deploy unsupervised autonomy to both the Robotaxi fleet & customer owned vehicles – Digital Optimus: our next evolution of AI development. We're working on automating digital workloads, building an intelligence layer that will complement real-world AI in vehicles & robots AI Inference Compute – Expanding our scope of manufacturing to include semiconductor fabrication (coinciding with Robotaxi & Optimus ramps) = step towards ensuring sufficient & resilient chip supply – Partnership with SpaceX aims to build the largest chip fab ever, vertically integrating logic, memory & advanced packaging to allow for rapid iteration – Completed final chip design of AI5 (our next-gen inference processor) in April Automotive & Other Software – Rolled out Spring Update which includes a new Self-Driving app with tutorials & stats, "Hey Grok" wake word w/ location-based reminders, accent lights for blind spot alerts, updated Pet Mode & more Robotaxi – Paid Robotaxi miles doubled sequentially in Q1 – Cybercab will begin replacing Model Y fleet once in production & be the largest volume vehicle in the fleet over time – Continuing to lay the groundwork for expanding into new cities (testing, permitting), so we can launch quickly once ready. Safety remains top priority – Expanded unsupervised ops in Austin & launched in Dallas & Houston in April FSD Supervised – Record net new FSD subscriptions in Q1 – Received approval to deploy FSD Supervised in the Netherlands in April, clearing the path for potential approval in other EU countries – Continuing to make progress on approval in China Automotive Services – Safety Score v3.0 enables every mile driven with FSD Supervised engaged to receive a score of 100. Higher Safety Score over time = lower premiums for Tesla Insurance customers

As we shift to an autonomous future, Model S & X production will wind down next quarter. If you’d like to own one of them, now’s a good time to place your order. Tesla wouldn’t be what it is today without Model S & X and their (early) owners – thank you for your support over the last decade

Q4 Shareholder Update → ir.tesla.com — Highlights 2025 marked a critical year for Tesla as we further expanded our mission & continued our transition from a hardware-centric business to a physical AI company. We also laid the foundation for the future of Tesla by further advancing FSD Supervised, launching our Robotaxi service, beginning to install production lines for Cybercab & fine-tuned our production-primed Optimus design while expanding our AI training infrastructure. In 2026, we will further invest in the infrastructure needed to support clean energy + transport as well as autonomous robots. This includes the ramp of 6 new production lines across vehicle, robots, energy storage & battery manufacturing. We're building a world of amazing abundance. LFG! Automotive – APAC region continues to show strength across multiple markets & set a record for deliveries this quarter – Preparations in North America continue for the production ramps of Tesla Semi & Cybercab, both commencing in the first half of 2026 & production of the next gen Roadster Energy generation + storage – Highest quarterly energy storage deployments, driven by record Megapack deployments – Total gross profit = $1.1 billion, marking our 5th consecutive record quarter! – Megapack 3 & Megablock production starting at Megafactory Houston this year – In 2025, Powerwall network supported more than 89k Virtual Power Plant events across >1 million installed units, saving homeowners >$1 billion in electricity bills Robotics – Planning to unveil Optimus Gen 3 in Q1 this year, our first design meant for mass production – Start of production planned by end of 2026, with eventual planned capacity of 1 million robots/year AI Training Compute – Currently building Cortex 2 at Giga Texas to further increase our AI training compute capacity – In the first half of 2026, we're planning to more than double the size of onsite compute in Texas (in terms of H100 equivalents) Battery – Our lithium refinery started pilot production.
