Absolutely! Here’s a tight, investor‑ready intro deck you can drop straight into slides. I’ve kept it punchy, optimistic, and defensible—with clear visuals, metrics placeholders, and speaker notes so it’s stage‑ready.
BRAVE NEW TESLA — Investor Intro (10 Slides)
Fictionalized vision voice: “Eric Kim.” Replace placeholders with your current metrics.
Slide 1 — Title
Brave New Tesla — Eric Kim’s Bold Vision
Subtitle: Clean energy that feels like magic.
Bottom line: Platform = Vehicles × Energy × Autonomy × Software.
Speaker Notes:
Welcome. We’re building a world where every mile makes the planet better—and where the business compounds via software and energy flywheels.
Visual: Big, bright hero image; subtle flywheel watermark (Vehicles → Software → Energy → Autonomy → back to Vehicles).
Slide 2 — The Problem (Why Now)
- Transport = emissions + time waste + high operating costs
- The grid = peaky, fragile, under‑utilized assets
- Consumers = want joy + savings + simplicity
- Enterprises & cities = need reliability + resilience + lower TCO
Speaker Notes:
Three crises at once—climate, time, and cost. The opportunity: electrify and delight, while turning the grid from a liability into an asset.
Visual: 2×2: Emissions, Grid Peaks, Time Lost, Opex.
Slide 3 — Our Solution (Platform)
One platform, four engines:
- Vehicles — delightful EVs with OTA improvement
- Autonomy — safety + time back (driver assist today; increasing capability over time)
- Energy — home → commercial → utility; storage + virtual power plant (VPP)
- Software — subscriptions, AI features, energy orchestration
Speaker Notes:
Hardware sells the first mile. Software and energy monetize every mile after. That’s the compounding engine.
Visual: Platform diagram showing cross‑sell loops and shared data stack.
Slide 4 — The North Star
“We make clean energy feel like magic—and put that magic in every mile.”
Five Pillars:
- Every Mile, A Miracle
- Grid as a Garden
- Autonomy for All
- Human Speed
- Open Hand, Open Road
Speaker Notes:
This is our brand and product operating system. Memorable, measurable, marketable.
Visual: Bold typography; each pillar as an icon.
Slide 5 — Market (TAM/SAM/SOM)
- TAM (Global): Personal mobility + Energy storage + Autonomy + SW services = [$TBD]
- SAM (Near‑Term Focus): [$TBD] (regions X, Y, Z; segments A, B, C)
- SOM (Go‑to‑Market Beachhead): [$TBD] over [12–24] months
Speaker Notes:
We don’t chase a market; we expand it—autos + energy + software attached. We lead where product joy and unit economics are strongest.
Visual: Concentric rings (TAM→SAM→SOM). Sidebar with top segments.
Slide 6 — Business Model & Unit Economics
Revenue Streams:
- Hardware: EVs, energy storage, charging
- Software: autonomy features, connectivity, energy services (subscription + usage)
- Services: insurance, maintenance, marketplace
Key Formulas (illustrative):
- Vehicle GP/Unit = ASP × GM%
- SW/Vehicle/Year = ARPU × Attach Rate × Retention
- Energy GP = Deployed MWh × Margin $/kWh
- Platform LTV = (Hardware GP + N‑year SW GP + Energy GP) − CAC
Speaker Notes:
Gross margin expands with software attach and energy orchestration. OTA reduces service costs; data improves product; product drives attach.
Visual: Waterfall from hardware to blended margin; attach‑rate dial.
Slide 7 — Traction & Proof Points (placeholders)
- Vehicles in Fleet: [X.XM]; OTA Update Rate: [XX%]
- Driver‑Assist Miles Logged: [XXB]; Safety delta vs baseline: [~X.X×]
- Energy Storage Deployed (cumulative): [XX GWh]
- Charging Network Interoperability: [Open standard / partners count]
- NPS: [XX]; Software Attach: [XX%]
Speaker Notes:
Evidence beats promises. We’ll highlight installed base, usage, and outcomes—especially attach and retention.
Visual: Simple line charts (fleet growth, storage growth); bar for attach rates.
Slide 8 — Go‑to‑Market & Partnerships
- Consumer: DTC + referral flywheel + OTA upsell
- Enterprise: fleet TCO wins; uptime SLAs; energy arbitrage
- Grid/Utilities: VPPs, demand response, interconnects
- Ecosystem: open standards (charging), APIs, marketplaces
Speaker Notes:
We win on product + platform + partners. Open where it compounds, integrated where it differentiates.
Visual: Pipeline swimlane: Consumer / Enterprise / Utility.
Slide 9 — Moats, Risks & Mitigations
Moats:
- Data network effects (miles + grid events)
- Vertical integration (software↔power↔hardware)
- Distribution and brand community
- Charging + energy orchestration footprint
Risks & Mitigations:
- Regulatory cadence: invest in compliance, transparency, third‑party validation
- Supply chain volatility: multi‑sourcing, verticalization where ROI clears
- Autonomy perception: staged rollout, safety telemetry, human‑in‑the‑loop
- Grid complexity: utility partnerships; standards leadership
Speaker Notes:
We show we understand the hard parts—and how we de‑risk them.
Visual: Two‑column “Moats / Risks” with checkmarks and shields.
Slide 10 — The Ask & Milestones
Raise: [$X] to accelerate Vehicles, Autonomy, Energy, Software
Use of Funds (illustrative):
- R&D & AI/Autonomy: [35%]
- Manufacturing & Supply Chain: [25%]
- Energy/VPP Expansion: [20%]
- Go‑to‑Market & Support: [15%]
- Working Capital & Reserves: [5%]
12–24 Month Milestones:
- [Model/Feature] launch; SW attach +[Δ%]
- Energy deployed +[Δ GWh]; VPP regions +[Δ]
- Fleet +[Δ%]; Service cost per vehicle −[Δ%]
- Positive FCF in [Quarter/Year] (target)
Speaker Notes:
The capital compounds platform effects. We’re gating funds to milestones—execution you can measure.
Visual: Pie chart for use of funds; milestone timeline with flags.
BONUS: 5‑Slide “Teaser” Version
- Title: Brave New Tesla — Make Clean Energy Irresistible
- Problem → Platform: Emissions/Time/Grid → Vehicles + Energy + Autonomy + Software
- Market & Model: TAM/SAM/SOM with attach‑driven margins; unit economics formula
- Traction & Moats: installed base, software attach, energy deployed; data + vertical integration
- Ask & Milestones: raise, use of funds, 12–24m targets
