Climate Policy Engagement: Tesla receives a grade of B in InfluenceMap’s assessment of corporate engagement on climate change policy, indicating broad alignment with, and support for, Paris-aligned policy.
Forecasted 2030 Production: 100% of Tesla's light-duty vehicle production in 2030 is forecast to be electric vehicles (100% battery electric vehicles (BEVs), 0% plug-in hybrids, and 0% fuel cell electric vehicles (FCEV)). This compares positively to the IEA’s 1.5°C scenario, which estimates that 66% of all car and van sales must be electric (BEV, PHEV or FCEV) by 2030 to meet a 1.5°C global temperature goal.
Climate Lobbying Overview: Tesla has actively and positively engaged on a number of streams of climate legislation globally in 2022-24. The company has supported ambitious policies globally to phase-out ICE vehicles in the EU, UK, and at the state level in the US, and has advocated for high-stringency GHG emissions standards for road transport in the US, EU, UK, Australia and New Zealand.

Tesla's forecasted fleet composition by technology: The IEA determined in its 2023 1.5C road transport scenario that 66% of all light-duty vehicle sales must be electric (battery electric vehicles, fuel cell electric vehicles and plug in hybrids) by 2030 to meet the Paris Agreement’s 1.5°C goal. Globally, Tesla’s 2030 production forecast is aligned with the IEA’s scenario. In 2030, Tesla is forecast to produce 100% electric vehicles (100% BEVs, 0% PHEVs and 0% FCEV), 0% ICE-powered hybrids and 0% combustion engine.
Tesla's forecasted vehicle size: Larger vehicles are a significant cause of increased GHG emissions from road transport, with smaller vehicles across different technologies generally producing fewer emissions. Tesla’s 2023 combined percentage proportion of SUVs and light commercial vehicles is approximately 68%, however this proportion is projected to increase to 82% through 2030.
Tesla's electric vehicle production compared: 100% of Tesla’s vehicles produced in 2030 are forecast to be electric (battery electric vehicles, plug-in hybrids or fuel cell electric vehicles), compared to an average of 53% for all automakers.
