Summary Impact Area Topic Description Page(s) Lifecycle Analysis of Tesla Vehicles Regardless of where it is driven (U.S., Europe or China), a Model 3 made in Fremont emits far fewer greenhouse gas 11 - 22 versus Average ICE emissions per mile than a comparable ICE. New research shows that fossil fuels are alone responsible for more than 8 million premature deaths annually, or NOx, Particulates and Other Pollutants almost one out of every five deaths globally, double previous estimates. Zero tailpipe emissions is a commonly 23 overlooked benefit of EVs. Tesla Semi's Impact on Emissions Tesla Semi is poised to make a large impact: in the U.S., combination trucks make up just 1.1% of the vehicle fleet but 24 account for 17% of annual emissions. Battery Recycling In Q4 2020, Tesla successfully installed the first phase of the cell recycling facility at Gigafactory Nevada for in-house 25 - 26 processing of both battery manufacturing scrap and end-of-life batteries. Environmental Impact Waste Generated per Vehicle As we continue to build new, more efficient factories our ability to limit packaging and reduce waste increases. Waste Manufactured generated per vehicle in Shanghai production is 50% less than our manufacturing in the U.S. We continue to push for 27 innovative approaches to reducing waste as we expand our global operations. Water Used in Vehicle Manufacturing While water usage per vehicle was already below the industry average in 2020, new factories such as Gigafactory 28 - 29 Berlin-Brandenburg will set a new standard when it comes to low water use per vehicle. In 2020, Tesla delivered 2x as many EVs as our next closest competitor, helping drive $1.6bn in revenue from selling Emissions Credits regulatory credits. This money is being used to accelerate our production capacity deployment in direct support of our 30 mission. Net Energy Impact of our Products Since we started producing Model S in 2012, Tesla solar panels have generated 8x more energy than our factories have 31 consumed over the same period. Product Affordability (Price Equivalency Model 3 has achieved price parity with its ICE equivalents. But, when compared on a total cost of ownership basis, the 33 - 34 & Total Cost of Ownership) Model 3 is much closer to a Toyota Camry on all-in cost per mile than to an ICE equivalent such as a BMW 3 Series. Our data show that Tesla vehicles are used as much as an average vehicle in the U.S., utilized for daily commutes, Product Impact Product Usage & Usability errands and long-distance travel alike. The superior range of our vehicles and a robust global Supercharger Network 35 - 36 makes this possible. Active Safety In 2020, a Tesla vehicle with Autopilot engaged in the U.S. experienced just 0.2 accidents per million miles driven while 37 the U.S. average was ~9x higher at 2.0 accidents per million miles driven. 81
