Why world’s richest man Elon Musk could become even richer
JD Vance wants Elon Musk back in White House but says Tesla boss 'won't take his calls'
Elon Musk could become the world's first trillionaire under a new proposed payment package at Tesla.
The deal, potentially worth over £740bn, is contingent on Musk achieving a series of ambitious targets for the company over the next decade.
These targets include increasing Tesla's market value to £6.3tn, delivering 20 million vehicles, and deploying one million robotaxis and AI humanoid robots.
The proposed package, which would also grant Musk more voting power, requires approval from Tesla shareholders at their annual meeting on 6 November.
Some market analysts have expressed scepticism regarding the feasibility of these targets and questioned Musk's recent performance and distractions.
