Billionaire Elon Musk said Tuesday he's committed to being CEO of Tesla in five years' time as the automaker faced intense consumer and stockprice pressure over his work with President Donald Trump's government.

During an interview Tuesday at Bloomberg’s Qatar Economic Forum in Doha, Musk was asked if he was committed to being the leader of Tesla for the next five years, and he responded with a “yes.” When asked in a followup if he had any doubts about that plan, he said “well, I might die.”
