Almost, but not quite. JB Straubel will be the next Tesla CEO. This will happen after the Model 3 launch and after Tesla sells off its car manufacturing to focus on battery/energy/infrastructure.
Do you have a source for selling off the car manufacturing part of Tesla?
Its worth noting that JB Straubel is just as passionate about electric vehicles as Elon is. JB actually worked on electric aircraft at his previous company, Volacom.
