Tesla Semi and white Roadster take center stage ahead of shareholder’s meeting
Tesla debut a white Roadster, apparently a third prototype, to complement the red and midnight silver-colored versions of the car that have been revealed so far. The latest Roadster in stunning white was unveiled on Tuesday before the start of the 2018 annual shareholders meeting at the Computer History Museum in Mountain View, CA. Tesla’s all-electric Semi also drew eyes as it arrived at the meeting’s location.
Pictures of the all-electric supercar were shared online by Tesla shareholder and veteran Tesla owner Dennis Pascual. While waiting for the annual shareholders meeting to start, Pascual shared images of the electric supercar under a cloth cover. As noted by the Tesla enthusiast, the covers of the white next-gen Roadster were eventually removed just as the Tesla Semi was parking. Here are pictures of the white next-gen Roadster.

The next-generation Tesla Roadster is expected to start production sometime in 2020. Unveiled last November, the all-electric supercar immediately set records as soon as it was announced. During the unveiling, Musk stated that the point of the next-generation Roadster was to deliver a “hardcore smackdown” to gasoline cars. Looking at the vehicle’s specs and capabilities, Musk’s statements definitely ring true.
The next-generation Tesla Roadster has a top speed of over 250 mph, well into the territories of hyper-exclusive vehicles such as the Bugatti Chiron and the Koenigsegg Agera R. The acceleration of the next-generation Roadster is industry-leading as well, with a 0-60 mph time of just 1.9 seconds. Owners of the next-gen Roadster would not need to worry about range either, as the vehicle would be equipped with a 200 kWh battery that enables the supercar to have 620 miles of range in a single charge. In classic Tesla fashion, the upcoming vehicle also boasts 10,00 Nm of torque, a figure that Musk candidly described as “stupid.”
As icing on the cake, Musk also stated that the specs of the Roadster that have been revealed so far are accurate for the vehicle’s base trim. Other, even more powerful variants of the next-generation Roadster are set to be offered. The next-generation Roadster is also relatively affordable considering its performance, with the vehicle starting at just $200,000, far below the price range of comparable gasoline-powered supercars. Test drives for the all-electric supercar would begin sometime towards the end of next year.
Overall, it seems fitting that Tesla would showcase what could be its third next-gen Roadster prototype during the 2018 shareholders meeting. The vehicle, after all, is the company’s upcoming flagship car. The Roadster has made its presence known in Tesla’s promotional video as well, with the Elon Musk-led company showcasing its insane acceleration and its futuristic, minimalistic interior during its quarterly all-hands promo video.

Tesla gets its best analysis from Morgan Stanley as ‘it’s all about to change’
He maintained its ‘Overweight’ rating and the $410 price target Morgan Stanley had on the stock.

Tesla has gotten perhaps its best analysis from Morgan Stanley in quite some time, as the Wall Street firm claims that “it’s all about to change.”
That phrase could be used for both the company’s status and the world in general.
Analyst Adam Jonas said in a new note on Thursday to investors that Tesla could be one of the major winners in terms of the global transition from what it is now to what it will be.
He describes the global shift that will occur over the next few years:
“Have you interacted with a robot today? Have you even seen a robot today? No? Well, take a mental picture because it’s all about to change. When we meet someone who has never been in a Waymo or a Tesla Cybercab (which is most people), we frequently see a wince and a response such as ‘I’m not sure I’d feel comfortable getting in a car without a driver.’ We imagine going back in time to 1903 and asking people if they’d feel comfortable in an airplane.’”
The same technological revolutions that have occurred over the past 150 years will continue to occur again and again. We are on the verge of another, Jonas believes, as companies like Tesla are working on artificial intelligence tech, which includes changing the way we look at things like transportation and labor.
Jonas includes an interesting tidbit in his note about how humanoid robots could change wages, and how it could work into the advantage of Tesla, especially as it is developing its own Optimus robot:
“We estimate 1 humanoid robot at $5/hour can do the work of 2 humans at $25/hour, generating an NPV of approximately $200k/humanoid. 1 robot shaped car can potentially drive down cost/mile of a ride share vehicle to <$0.20 mile (1/10th human-driven ride-share).”
Jonas sees Tesla as a key player in how AI will impact things like manufacturing and various automotive industries, and he believes there is long-term potential for AI, robomobility, and even autonomous eVTOL platforms.

Tesla stock gets crazy prediction from CEO Elon Musk
Musk says this is what it would take to be a millionaire from a Tesla investment right now.

Tesla stock (NASDAQ: TSLA) got a crazy prediction from CEO Elon Musk recently, as the future of the company seems to be moving more toward AI, autonomy, and robotics, and away from automotive, which is what it has traditionally been recognized as.
Over the past few years, as Tesla has prioritized its Full Self-Driving suite, its rollout of a dedicated Robotaxi program, and the development of the Optimus bot, the company has gained a new reputation from analysts.
It was always looked at as a stock with tremendous potential by many Wall Street firms, some more than others.
The most bullish analysts, like Cathie Wood of ARK Invest, believe the company will eventually reach a multi-trillion-dollar valuation and a share price of over $2,000. Her $2,600 price target does not include any contributions of Optimus. Instead, it leans on Full Self-Driving and Robotaxi.
Based on where the company is now, there are a lot of potential catalysts. The Robotaxi expansion, as well as affordable vehicles, its prowess in AI and Robotics, and its powerful energy division are all arguments for investment.
One X user said that a $150,000 investment in Tesla right now would likely make you a millionaire. Musk said he thinks that sentiment is “probably correct.”
I think this is probably correct
— Elon Musk (@elonmusk) August 5, 2025
He’s echoed this belief in recent earnings calls, including the one for Q2, which happened in July:
“I do think if Tesla continues to execute well with vehicle autonomy and humanoid robot autonomy, it will be the most valuable company in the world. A lot of execution between here and there. It doesn’t just happen. Provided we execute very well, I think Tesla has a shot at being the most valuable company in the world. Obviously, I am extremely optimistic about the future of the company.”
Tesla is trading at $316.50 at the time of writing, and has a market cap of just under $1 trillion.

Tesla stock gets another analysis from Jim Cramer, and investors will like it
“Tesla is morphing right now. It’s in transition from being a car company to being a technology company.”

Tesla stock (NASDAQ: TSLA) got its latest analysis from Jim Cramer, and investors will like what he has to say.
Cramer has flip-flopped his thoughts on Tesla shares many times over the years. One time, he said CEO Elon Musk was a genius; the next, he said Ford stock was a better play. He’s always changing his tune.
However, Cramer’s most recent analysis is of a bullish tone, as he talks about the company’s evolution from an automaker to a tech powerhouse. He made the comments on CNBC’s Mad Money:
“Tesla is morphing right now. It’s in transition from being a car company to being a technology company. You wanna be in there because the tech is worth a lot more than what it’s selling for right now. Don’t care where you bought it, care where it’s going to.”

Tesla has always been looked at by the mainstream media as an automaker. While that is its main business currently, Tesla has always had other divisions: Energy, Solar, Charging, AI, and Robotics. Some came after others, but the important point is that Tesla has not been an automaker exclusively for a decade.
It launched Powerwall and Powerpack in April 2015, marking the start of Tesla Energy.
But Cramer has a point here: Tesla is truly becoming much more than a car company, and it is turning into an AI and overall tech company more than ever before. Eventually, it will be recognized as such, more so than it will be as an automotive company.
Cramer’s comments also follow a recent prediction by Musk, who stated on X that he believes a $150,000 investment in Tesla shares right now would eventually turn someone into a millionaire:
I think this is probably correct

Musk has said he believes Tesla could be headed to a serious increase in valuation. Eventually, it could become the most valuable company in the world. He said this during the Q2 Earnings Call:
“I do think if Tesla continues to execute well with vehicle autonomy and humanoid robot autonomy, it will be the most valuable company in the world. A lot of execution between here and there. It doesn’t just happen. Provided we execute very well, I think Tesla has a shot at being the most valuable company in the world. Obviously, I am extremely optimistic about the future of the company.”
