Η Tesla, όπως ανακοίνωσε, θα προσφέρει 2,1 εκατ. μετοχές της, που εκτιμά πως θα της αποφέρουν έσοδα μεταξύ 492,6 εκατ. δολαρίων και 566,5 εκατ. δολαρίων.
Τα χρήματα αυτά θα χρησιμοποιηθούν για την επέκταση των αντιπροσωπειών της, την επέκταση των συνεργείων, του δικτύου ταχυφορτιστών της Supercharger, αλλά και της Tesla Energy. Μέρος των χρημάτων αυτών θα επενδυθούν και για την ανάπτυξη του Model 3 και για τις εργασίες κατασκευής του Gigafactory.
