Tesla revenue goes beyond electric vehicle sales. Here's how the automaker generates revenues

• Tesla brought in $81.5 billion in revenue last year, putting it in 50th place on the Fortune 500.
• The vast majority of its revenues come from sales of its EVs, like the Model Y.
• But 17.5% of its revenues stemmed from selling regulatory credits and energy products.

Tesla, the EV manufacturer led by tech mogul Elon Musk, has seen its revenues boom over the past decade as more customers turn to greener modes of transport.

The company doesn't just make its money through EV sales, though – other streams of revenue include the sale of regulatory credits and energy generation and storage product.
