Almost ALL personal transport being electrified: bikes, trikes, skateboards, scooters, motorbikes. Do a few internet searches.
Tesla could perhaps compete with Bosch? controllers; chargers; battery packs; skate board for coach builders/truck builders devices with access to SuperCharger network?
===== another random thought, I'd like to see Tesla jump start.
Safety - Sure could use redesign of safety helmets - they are mostly pathetic. Doing internet searches and you will find little information on actual crash safety design. No one guesses with car crashing - they do actual test and computer modeling.
Imagine the improvements IF actual tests and computer modeling to CREATE a good helmut. AND reusable/replaceable padding.
You'll find ALL KINDS of studies. ANY of them about the physics and actual head crash safety?? Go read the actual test they use to approve/certify a Helmet. Now auto racing (especially F-1) must have much better info. but of course for high-speed inside a roll-cage, neck braced environment.
The only serious attempt. Failed to market successfully.
HE was using a helmet - and still got a concussion from a bike accident - so he set out to make a better helmet.

Casco Kranium por Anirudha Surabhi - DESIGNAHOLICAfter suffering a concussion [wearing a helmet] when crashing his bicycle at very low speed, Surabhi decided to improve the current helmets, since these only serve 20% of the time. He was inspired by the woodpecker to develop an even safer helmet. The woodpecker has a porous cartilage between the skull and the beak, which absorbs the force of the impact by hitting the trees more than 10 times per second.
