In a tweet last night, Elon Musk, CEO of Tesla, said that a new product would be unveiled next week. Little is known about what the product could be, but Mr Musk said that it would be 'unexpected'
Musk's tweet read: 'Tesla product unveiling on the 17th (unexpected by most), followed by Tesla/SolarCity on the 28th.'
The Tesla CEO has previously hinted at the event on October 28, tweeting at the end of last month: 'Aiming for Oct 28 unveil in SF Bay Area of new Tesla/SolarCity solar roof with integrated Powerwall 2.0 battery and Tesla charger.'
But his latest tweet suggests that Tesla will be revealing something else on top of those new products.
Many people on Twitter have speculated on what the new product could be.
One user, called Keng, replied to Mr Musk's tweet: 'Model 3 Part Deux' – hinting that it could be a new vehicle.

Others have suggested that Tesla has been working on an electric two-wheeler, such as Edward Patel, who tweeted: 'Time for a motorcycle maybe?'
Tesla recently released an update to its Autopilot 8.0 system, but it could also be planning to announce new features.
The firm has recently faced criticism from customers in Norway about its Model S P85D cars.

The model is best known for its stomach-churning acceleration during 'Insane mode,' allowing the car to go from 0-60 mph in just three seconds.
But it appears that customers in Norway are not happy, and claim that the acceleration is not as fast as advertised.
Some 126 owners of the car are seeking money back from Tesla, and it looks like they could get as much as 50,000 kroner (£5,750 in UK and $6,155 in US) each.
