Abstract

The primary business of Tesla is the design, production, and sale of electric automobiles. Naturally, this is the case, and the energy storage industry has grown as a result. Tesla concentrates on the vehicle, outsources some links, and combines them with its system capabilities. It also masters fundamental technologies, including chip algorithms, autonomous driving technology, and battery management technology. Tesla has a cutting-edge new media promotion strategy. Regarding promotion, Tesla does not increase its spending on traditional media advertising; instead, its marketing team actively leverages popular social media platforms, word-of-mouth marketing, and live broadcast marketing techniques and strategies to capitalize on the novel aspects of new media marketing in the current market, particularly the domestic market.
