Piper Sandler analyst Alexander Potter raised on September 22, 2025, Tesla’s price target to $500 (from $400), reiterating an ‘Overweight’ rating on the stock.
“We are boosting our price target to $500, following a trip to China.
After meeting with Chinese EV makers, we can see why Elon Musk respects these “fast followers” so much.
Indeed, vertically-integrated Chinese OEMs may be Tesla’s #1 competitive threat.
But when it comes to “real world” A.I., these companies look to Tesla for guidance – not the other way around.
In the words of one company, “without Tesla going from 0 to 1, we can’t go from 1 to 100.”
Bottom line: TSLA remains our top idea for investing in autonomous vehicles and robotics.”
