Tesla Inc Chief Executive Elon Musk has set his young company on an aggressive expansion path like no other auto executive has dreamed – but one riddled with potholes and roadblocks that could stall or sidetrack the journey.
Musk’s audacious goal of selling 20 million electric vehicles in 2030 is at the center of the company’s growth promise for shareholders and its pledge to drive the adoption of sustainable energy. If achieved, it would make Tesla twice the size of any automaker in history, accounting for roughly 20% of the global vehicle market.
