Tesla, founded in 2003, is a company that specializes in electric power technology. The firm sells its powertrain components to other car companies. At the same time, it is selling a high-performance electric Roadster and the Model S and Model X luxury cars. The company is serving two customers at the same time, both with a focused differentiation strategy: high-end car buyers and car manufacturers with electric cars in their portfolio.
