Tesla boss Elon Musk appears to be going the extra mile when it comes to the delivery of the Model 3 to its customers. According to a recent tweet, Tesla's CEO revealed that the company is working on a delivery system which will transport brand new cars from the Tesla factory straight to the customer’s home.
Musk noted that the new delivery system is ‘super convenient’ and makes use of enclosed trailers which will help maintain the car’s pristine condition and also help eliminate the plastic wrap usually used on newly delivered vehicles.
We tried out a new delivery system using an enclosed trailer straight from factory to owner’s home, so super convenient & car arrives in pristine condition without wasting plastic wrap https://t.co/exNyhb0zOT— Elon Musk (@elonmusk) July 30, 2018
The tweet shows images of Devin Scott, the ecstatic Model 3 buyer from Playa Vista, California. Although Playa Vista is located just around 3.4 km from Tesla’s Marina Del Rey delivery centre, it’s rare to see the CEO of an automobile manufacturer come out and deliver a vehicle to a customer in person.
The innovative delivery process will be a key influencer in coming months as Tesla would need to ensure that deliveries of the Model 3 are done in the stipulated time. Tesla would have to make sure that vehicles don’t sit idle at the factory and in turn create a bottleneck.
Tesla also recently introduced a $1500 surfboard made in collaboration between Tesla Design Studios and Lost Surfboards, a California based company that makes surfboards. The surfboards had a limited production run of just 200 units. All 200 units were sold out in a day.
