Tesla (NASDAQ:TSLA), the global electric vehicle (EV) and energy storage manufacturer, closed at $367.95, up 5.51%. Investors focused on the upcoming Sept. 3 Cybercab event and renewed interest in FSD and robotaxi plans.
Trading volume reached 60.9 million shares, coming in about 46% above its three-month average of 41.6 million shares. Tesla IPO'd in 2010 and has grown 23,042% since going public.
The S&P 500 (SNPINDEX:^GSPC) closed at 7,686, down 0.33%, while the Nasdaq Composite (NASDAQINDEX:^IXIC) closed at 26,371, down 0.12%. Among EV and automotive software peers, Rivian Automotive (NASDAQ:RIVN) closed at $16.06, down 0.06%, and Lucid Group (NASDAQ:LCID) closed at $4.85, down 3.19%.
Tesla CEO Elon Musk has been guiding investors to focus on his company's EV autonomy software as a main driver for Tesla's future fortunes. The next big step in that regard is coming on Thursday, and anticipation looked to be helping drive shares higher today.
The invite-only Cybercab event in Austin is being billed as offering exclusive access to the steering-wheel- and pedal-free vehicle. Investors may hear more from that gathering about Tesla's progress and plans for that brand-new product.
Tesla's full self-driving (FSD) technology gained approval for a limited robotaxi rollout in Nevada two weeks ago, helping to expand its footprint and set the stage for an eventual Cybercab fleet.
