Tesla Stock (TSLA) Hits Record High Near $490 as Robotaxi Buzz Surges—While California Targets “Autopilot” Marketing

Tesla, Inc. stock is ending 2025 with a familiar cocktail of ingredients: a fresh record high, a big autonomy narrative, and a regulatory plot twist that could matter a lot more than a one-day candle on a chart. On Tuesday, TSLA closed at $489.88, up about 3%, marking its first record close in roughly a year and putting the psychologically loud $500 level within striking distance. Investopedia But under the celebratory confetti, California regulators are telling Tesla to fix or drop language around “Autopilot”—or risk a 30-day sales license suspension in the state that remains Tesla’s biggest U.S. market.
