Tesla
Tesla, Inc. is an American automotive and energy company based in Palo Alto, California. The company specializes in electric car manufacturing and, through its SolarCity subsidiary, in solar panel manufacturing.

Robyn Denholm, the finance chief of Australian telecoms firm Telstra, takes over from the electric car maker’s founder, who remains chief executive. Musk agreed to step down as chair last month to resolve claims of fraud brought by US financial regulators.

The settlement requires Tesla to install an independent chairman, among other penalties. The announcement scotches reports that James Murdoch was the frontrunner for the job. Tesla has endured a difficult few months, following comments Musk made on social media in early August suggesting he had “funding secured” for a deal to take Tesla private.
