Tesla
Tesla has reached one of its goals,which once sounded a bit too lofty and ambitious: manufacturing one million electric vehicles by 2020. Company chief Elon Musk has shared a couple of images on Twitter congratulating his team for making Tesla's 1 millionth car. One of the photos is a red Model Y,most likely the millionth EV to come off its production line,while the other is the same car surrounded by company personnel.

— Elon Musk (@elonmusk) March 10,2020There was a time when even the company's executives admitted that they might not hit a million cars this year and only reach a number close to it. And that seemed to be a likely scenario for a while,considering Tesla suffered from production woes affecting the Model 3 over the past few years.
Still,the achievement didn't come out of left field: Tesla is thriving in the US market,whereas its competitors are having a hard time time selling EVs in the country. Its car shipments even grew by 50 percent last year,thanks to the success of the Model 3 sedan. The company is also expected to start shipping its Model Y crossover SUVs,the same vehicle in Musk's photos,within the next few days.
