Tesla's top priority in 2017 is more than just building a car!

On February 8th, for Tesla, 2016 was a very rewarding year: the Model 3 electric car was announced, new battery products were introduced, SolarCity was acquired, and solar roof tiles were released. Judging from the news released by Tesla CEO Elon Musk, the company seems to have a more ambitious plan in 2017. Let's take a look at the 2017 plan that Tesla has revealed.

Announce more details about Tesla's car sharing network In July 2016, Musk revealed that Tesla will launch its own taxi network. At the company's official blog, Musk revealed that once Tesla's electric car was fully automated, the company would start a car-sharing project that would allow owners to make money through taxis. “You just need to press the button on the Tesla mobile app to get your car to join the Tesla shared team, so that it can generate revenue for you when you go to work or on vacation, greatly reducing the monthly or rental burden. The income will sometimes exceed the monthly supply.” Tesla said in October last year that the owner can only join Tesla’s taxi network for income purposes. The company will reveal more about its taxi network in 2017. More details.

Tesla Motors will cross the US home in an automatic mode, Musk said at a press conference that a Tesla car will travel from Los Angeles to New York in full automatic mode by the end of 2017. He said: "I am very confident in accomplishing this goal. We will demonstrate Tesla's fully automatic driving function from Los Angeles to New York."

Accelerating battery production at the Gigafactory Super Factory In January of this year, Tesla and its battery partner Panasonic began producing batteries at the Gigafactory. The company also plans to increase production before the Model 3 goes on sale. Tesla's current battery is mainly used in Tesla's home energy storage battery pack Powerwall 2 and commercial energy storage battery pack Powerpack 2. However, Tesla said in a statement last month that the company plans to start producing batteries for its first mass-market model, the Model 3, sometime in the second quarter of this year. The battery produced by Gigafactory can reduce costs, enabling the company to set the Model 3 price at around $35,000.

Started production of solar cells and panels at its new plant in Buffalo, New York Tesla SolarCity, a photovoltaic power plant acquired in November, plans to produce solar cells at its new manufacturing facility in Buffalo, New York this summer. The company seems to be on track and will implement its plans as scheduled. According to a local newspaper in Buffalo, SolarCity has begun recruiting factory workers.

Model 3 conference was held again to show more features of the model. Although Tesla announced the Model 3 in March last year, some important details of the car have not yet been announced. Specifically, Tesla has not yet announced the interior design of the Model 3. What we already know is that the Model 3 has a cruising range of at least 215 miles (about 346 kilometers). But Tesla has hinted that the car's cruising range may be greatly improved.

Production of the Model 3 electric car Tesla is scheduled to begin production of the Model 3 in the middle of the year, and delivery will begin at the end of the year. However, according to the Tesla official website, new orders will not be fulfilled until 2018, or even later.

Renovation and upgrade plant Musk has developed an ambitious plan to completely renovate the Tesla plant's production process to achieve its goal of producing 500,000 vehicles per year in 2018. To achieve this goal, Tesla acquired Grohmann Engineering, a German engineering company specializing in the design of production automation systems, in November last year. Mask said that the technology brought by the acquisition will help Tesla achieve its goal of becoming the "best manufacturer in the world."

The sale of Tesla Solar Roof Tesla announced its solar roof tiles in October last year. Musk said at the time that Tesla plans to introduce four roof tiles to meet different aesthetic needs. These roofing tiles are expected to begin production in mid-2017, when consumers can place orders. Musk also said that the cost of these solar roof tiles is lower than that of ordinary roof tiles.

Site selection to build a second Gigafactory super factory Musk revealed in November last year that Tesla plans to build a super factory in Europe that can produce both batteries and cars. He said that Tesla plans to build such a factory at least in Europe, and it is possible to increase the number to several. However, it will take time for this hybrid factory to become a reality. Tesla plans to start looking for a suitable factory address during the year, but we don't know if Tesla will start construction during the year.
