Founder and CEO Elon Musk announced the launch of a new project from his company Tesla, Inc. — a modular house that will be manufactured and assembled using a model similar to that used in the production of electric cars. The company has published a video announcement demonstrating the assembly of modules, the installation of “smart” systems, integration with energy infrastructure, and the possibility of quick installation on site.
According to Musk, the Tesla modular home will have a number of key features, namely:
Musk noted that “the housing of the future must be built quickly, efficiently, and with minimal impact on the environment,” and that Tesla “can do for buildings what it has done for transportation.” According to him, the first prototypes will be assembled as early as 2026, and mass production is planned to start in 2027.
The company expects modular homes to be in demand both in the US market and abroad, especially in places with rising real estate prices and housing shortages. Musk emphasized that Tesla is considering partnerships with builders and developers around the world.
Elon Musk is one of the most famous entrepreneurs of our time. Born in 1971 in South Africa, he later moved to Canada and the US. He founded or was one of the key figures in companies such as PayPal, SpaceX, and Tesla. Musk has become a symbol of “21st-century technological entrepreneurship.”
Tesla, Inc. is an American company founded in 2003 that specializes in electric vehicles, renewable energy solutions, and stationary storage. On Musk’s initiative, the company scaled up production, launched Gigafactory, and became one of the leaders in the green tech sector.
The launch of the modular home project demonstrates the expansion of Tesla’s business format — from transportation and energy to residential construction — and may become a new growth vector in the field of “smart homes” and sustainable construction.
