Elon Musk has once again surprised the world with an announcement that seemed unimaginable just a few years ago. Tesla, the company famous for its electric cars and bold technological advances, has unveiled its first electric plane. The historic moment took place during a spectacular presentation at a private airfield in California, where the aircraft made its maiden flight before the astonished gaze of spectators.



The reaction to this announcement was immediate. Many aviation industry experts welcome this innovation and consider it a decisive turning point for the future of air transport. “Tesla has already revolutionised the automotive industry. It was inevitable that they would also attack the aeronautics industry,” says technology analyst Richard Greenfield.
However, some skeptics point to the challenges that still lie ahead. One of the main hurdles is the deployment of charging infrastructure to support a fleet of electric aircraft. In addition, the range, while impressive for a first model, is still inferior to that of traditional fuel-powered aircraft. However, Elon Musk confidently responded to these concerns: “All technology starts with limitations, but we will continue to innovate and push those boundaries.”
