While speaking at the court trial, the billionaire made the startling revelation that he hates being Tesla boss.

"I rather hate it and I would much prefer to spend my time on design and engineering," he told a US court.

Mr. Musk is accused of pressuring the firm's board members into a $2.6bn (£1.9bn) deal to buy a solar panel firm. The shareholders claim the carmaker's money was wasted on buying SolarCity, which - they say - was running out of money.

During the time of deal, Musk had a 22% stake in both Tesla and the solar panel company, which was founded by his cousins.

"Since it was a stock-for-stock transaction and I owned almost exactly the same percentage of both there was no financial gain," he said.

He also denied pressurizing board members, saying that the deal was part of a "master plan" to create affordable vehicles with green power supplies.
