Published

on

Tesla kicked off Project Loveday in response to a letter CEO Elon Musk received from 10-year-old Bria Loveday, suggesting that the company run a fan-made video competition to see who could create the best commercial. As the contest comes to a close on May 8th, here are a few of our favorite submissions.

Updated: Tesla Project Loveday winners will be featured on Model 3 live webcast

1. “Play” by Sky Iris

This artistic clip is a breath of fresh air in a sea of uninspiring, stressful commercials. It draws out the silence and peace that come to drivers of Tesla vehicles. It reminds us that driving can be fun and proposes that in a Tesla, we are again allowed to play.

2. “Your Sun” by Andy Slye

This inspirational video meets us where we are. It reminds us that each of us is powerful. Each of us has the power to and the drive to create change in our worlds and have a positive effect on the world.

3. “The Future” by Stereokroma

Stereokroma’s gives us a humorous look at one vehicle owner’s attempt to “sell” his “100% electric” and “solar powered” vehicle with ludicrous speed to a third-party buyer at an unbeatable price. Free.

4. “The Plan” by Ben Sullins

Ben Sullins of Teslanomics paints a picture of a plan to tap into our innovative spirits to build a path to an exciting future powered by renewable energy. The video reminds us all who live on this beautiful planet to take charge and make a positive change in this world. “For those of you who can, I say do”.

5. “Life” by Taegen Carter

Arguable the best produced video we’ve seen since Project Loveday began, comes the tale of a man’s epic journey after he discovers a child’s drawing. It’s an emotionally gripping story of self realization of what’s important in life.

 

Bonus: We’ve included one of the original fan-made Tesla commercials by the Freise Brothers. This short opens in a dystopian future with the landscape scattered with refuse and waste from our fossil fuel-based society. A Model S arrives onto the scene to accelerate the world’s transition to sustainable energy and transport. A powerful sound clip of a speech by Nikola Tesla ramps up to a crescendo as the clip draws to a close.

Tesla’s Giga Nevada has reached an impressive milestone, producing its 6 millionth drive unit as 2925 came to a close.

To celebrate the milestone, the Giga Nevada team gathered for a celebratory group photo. 

6 million drive units

The achievement was shared by the official Tesla Manufacturing account on social media platform X. “Congratulations to the Giga Nevada team for producing their 6 millionth Drive Unit!” Tesla wrote. 

The photo showed numerous factory workers assembled on the production floor, proudly holding golden balloons that spelled out “6000000″ in front of drive unit assembly stations. Elon Musk gave credit to the Giga Nevada team, writing, “Congrats on 6M drive units!” in a post on X.

Giga Nevada’s essential role

Giga Nevada produces drive units, battery packs, and energy products. The facility has been a cornerstone of Tesla’s scaling since opening, and it was the crucial facility that ultimately enabled Tesla to ramp the Model 3 and Model Y. Even today, it serves as Tesla’s core hub for battery and drivetrain components for vehicles that are produced in the United States.

Giga Nevada is expected to support Tesla’s ambitious 2026 targets, including the launch of vehicles like the Tesla Semi and the Cybercab. Tesla will have a very busy 2026, and based on Giga Nevada’s activities so far, it appears that the facility will be equally busy as well.

Tesla’s Supercharger Network had its biggest year ever in 2025, delivering a record 6.7 TWh of electricity to vehicles worldwide. 

To celebrate its busy year, the official @TeslaCharging account shared an infographic showing the Supercharger Network’s growth from near-zero in 2012 to this year’s impressive milestone.

Record 6.7 TWh delivered in 2025

The bar chart shows steady Supercharger energy delivery increases since 2012. Based on the graphic, the Supercharger Network started small in the mid-2010s and accelerated sharply after 2019, when the Model 3 was going mainstream. 

Each year from 2020 onward showed significantly more energy delivery, with 2025’s four quarters combining for the highest total yet at 6.7 TWh.

This energy powered millions of charging sessions across Tesla’s growing fleet of vehicles worldwide. The network now exceeds 75,000 stalls globally, and it supports even non-Tesla vehicles across several key markets. This makes the Supercharger Network loved not just by Tesla owners but EV drivers as a whole.

Resilience after Supercharger team changes

2025’s record energy delivery comes despite earlier 2024 layoffs on the Supercharger team, which sparked concerns about the system’s expansion pace. Max de Zegher, Tesla Director of Charging North America, also highlighted that “Outside China, Superchargers delivered more energy than all other fast chargers combined.”

Longtime Tesla owner and FSD tester Whole Mars Catalog noted the achievement as proof of continued momentum post-layoffs. At the time of the Supercharger team’s layoffs in 2024, numerous critics were claiming that Elon Musk was halting the network’s expansion altogether, and that the team only remained because the adults in the room convinced the juvenile CEO to relent.

Such a scenario, at least based on the graphic posted by the Tesla Charging team on X, seems highly implausible.
