Elon Musk's grand plan before 2030: many dreams

　　Beijing time, December 7th news, Elon Musk has proposed many grand plans, and it may be difficult for us to track the time of realization of each project. At present, Futurism website has listed the list of projects that all Musk's companies will realize before 2030. Let's follow the automotive electronics editor to learn about the relevant content.

　　Elon Musk: A man with many dreams

　　To describe billionaire Elon Musk as a busy entrepreneur is an understatement. Musk, despite his youth, runs a slew of companies, each with a firm vision for the future.

He founded Tesla　　to advance electric vehicles (EAVs) and renewable energy solutions, SpaceX to give humanity a chance to become a multi-planet species, The Boring Company to transform transportation and build the best tunnels, and OpenAI, a non-profit artificial intelligence project, to promote the rapid development of artificial intelligence. Finally, he founded Neuralink to enhance the capabilities of the human brain.

　　It’s easy to get lost in the diversity agenda at Musk’s hodgepodge of companies, so here’s a laundry list of what he plans to accomplish by 2030:

　　2017: Musk has set himself ambitious goals that are all within reach in the near future, with the latest timeline being to build the world's largest lithium-ion battery factory in Australia within 100 days. In March, Musk announced that he would soon complete the construction of the lithium-ion battery factory within 100 days, otherwise he would provide free services. In September, the official countdown for the lithium-ion battery project began, with only 100 days left for the project, and by the end of September, half of the construction work was completed. At the same time, Musk promised to start delivering Tesla 's improved solar roof by the end of 2017.

　　2018: This year Musk's top priority is likely to be getting Tesla Model 3 production on track. The goal is now to produce 5,000 per month by March 2018, but it's hard to say whether Tesla can actually reach that goal, as the company has suffered some setbacks in production. Around the same time, Tesla will promise to upgrade its self-driving car software system, which it says will enable autonomous driving capabilities by 2020. Back in Australia, a solar and wind project is expected to be completed in 2018, which will provide Tesla with unlimited scalability of industrial-grade battery Powerpacks.

　　2019: This year has some exciting things coming up, with the recent unveiling of the Tesla electric semi, which is expected to go into production in 2019, although few details have been released. Around this time, between October 2018 and April 2019, Tesla will unveil an electric pickup truck. Also, in 2019, a compact SUV called the "Model Y" will be released, as well as a Tesla car called the "Model F." Then there's the Boring Company tunnel being built in Los Angeles, and while Musk didn't reveal a specific timeline, we can assume that with the completion of the project and approval from local authorities, this advanced tunnel transportation system will be completed and operational in the next few years.

　　2020: In the next three years, Musk's plans will become bigger and bigger. First, the Tesla Roadster 2.0 has been accepted for pre-order in November this year and is expected to be released in 2020. After that, if Tesla Model 3 goes into mass production smoothly, it is expected to produce 1 million electric vehicles per year by 2020. Also in 2020, Tesla electric vehicles may be able to travel 1,000 kilometers on a single charge.

　　2021: Musk will probably complete the construction of a Tesla super-large battery factory around 2020 and start producing electric vehicles in 2021. A factory will be built in China to enhance cooperation with the Chinese government on electric vehicle projects, and is expected to be put into production in 2030. In addition, Tesla also plans to build 1,000 super charging stations in China.

　　2022: Perhaps the most important moment for Musk will come in 2022! The first planned cargo mission to Mars will be carried by a modified version of the Super Rocket (BFR). As a new type of reusable rocket, BFR will become the standard for SpaceX space missions with the aim of reducing the cost of space travel.

　　2024: Two years later, Elon Musk plans to send the first manned mission to Mars. Meanwhile, between 2022 and 2024, SpaceX may launch an Earth version of the BFR rocket, which will become a new mode of transportation between cities.

　　2030 and beyond: Elon Musk has a number of projects that have no fully confirmed timelines, or at least none that are public. The most important are the Hyperloop, which Musk thinks Tesla or SpaceX would be more willing to participate in, and Neuralink, which is in the early stages of development, Musk's attempt to combine the human brain with artificial intelligence.
