History
Background
The Tesla Master Plan Part Deux, released in 2016, suggested the development of a "people-mover,"[1] and in 2022 Tesla CEO Elon Musk spoke of the development of a "highly configurable Robovan for people & cargo."[2]
The future large vehicle was teased at Tesla's 2023 Investor Day in March 2023, and the Tesla Master Plan Part 3, released a month later, outlined the production of a commercial van as part of the two vehicles it was going to launch along with a robotaxi.[3]
