Tesla investor Ron Baron sees $1 trillion in revenue in 10 years — and that won't be the end - CNBC

Billionaire investor Ron Baron believes Tesla has the potential to hit $1 trillion in revenue in 10 years and continue to grow from there.

"It's nowhere near ended at that point and time," he said Tuesday morning on "Squawk Box." "There's a lot of growth opportunities from that point going forward."

Baron, whose eponymous investment firm holds nearly 1.63 million Tesla shares, said Baron Capital will not sell a single share of company. Tesla's recent run, he said, is "just the beginning" as he believes the company "could be one of the largest companies in the whole world."

As of Monday's close, Baron's Tesla stake was worth $1.3 billion. He said he accumulated the Tesla shares at an average cost of $219 each.

Tesla's stock has climbed nearly 220% in the past six months, including roughly 86.5% this year. The company's market cap is now more than $140 billion -- nearly triple that of General Motors but below Toyota Motor at roughly $227 billion.

The stock closed up 19.9% on Monday at a record high $780 per share. Shares were up more than 12% in pre-market trading on Tuesday to about $880 per share. Monday marked the best day for Tesla since May 2013, when the company reported its first quarterly profit and Consumer Reports gave the Model S a "near perfect" score.

Despite the volatility of the stock and "some self-inflicted wounds" by Tesla CEO Elon Musk, Baron on Tuesday said his faith in the company "was never shaken."

Investors betting against Tesla's stock have lost more than $8 billion since the beginning of the year, according to data from S3 Partners, including nearly $2.5 billion in losses on Monday's surge alone.

In 2018, Baron made headlines by saying Tesla could generate $1 trillion in revenue by 2030. Tesla's revenue was $21.5 billion in 2018, up from $11.8 billion a year earlier. It reported revenue last week of $24.6 billion in 2019.
