Who is the CEO of Tesla Inc. as of 2024?

Elon Musk was the CEO of Tesla, Inc. as of 2024.

Musk had served as Tesla’s chief executive since October 2008. He joined the company’s board in 2004, became its largest investor, and helped guide Tesla from a small electric-car startup into a major automaker and energy-technology company. Tesla’s public offering in 2010 marked another major stage in that growth.

Tesla’s board gave Musk the distinctive title “Technoking of Tesla” in 2021, but his formal executive role remained chief executive officer. He also led SpaceX and was associated with other ventures, which sometimes causes quiz-takers to confuse his Tesla position with his roles at those companies.

The wording “as of 2024” matters because executive positions can change. During 2024, however, Tesla’s corporate filings and investor materials continued to identify Musk as CEO. Sundar Pichai, Jeff Bezos, and Tim Cook were leaders of different major technology companies, not Tesla.
