Elon Musk unveils new 'Master Plan' for Tesla: Electric trucks, buses and driver-less Uber
He aimed to extend the automaker's focus beyond personal automobiles and also allow owners to let the cars earn money by driving others when not being used.

Founder and CEO of Tesla Motors Elon Musk on Wednesday announced the second part of the Tesla 'Master Plan,' a decade after he revealed the original blueprint for his electric car company. The Master Plan intends to bring millions of driver-less cars on to the roads, turn Tesla's attention beyond personal automobiles to trucks and buses, and also establish something akin to a driver-less Uber.
Earlier this week, Tesla had said it would consider Minister of Road Transport and Highways Nitin Gadkari's offer to set up a manufacturing unit in India to boost its South Asia presence. Gadkari had also suggested that the electric car manufacturer enter into a joint venture with Indian automakers to bring in more non-polluting vehicles to the country's roads.
Musk's new plan envisions a deal with American energy services provided SolarCity to "create a smoothly integrated and beautiful solar-roof-with-battery product", in addition to making fully driver-less automobiles that will allow owners to let the cars earn money by driving others when not being used. Tesla is also working on an electric heavy-duty cargo truck, as well as an autonomous electric bus.
