Så begynnelsen av denne på telefonen tidligere: "Tesla announces European..." Og selvsagt trodde jeg det var prisene! Men den gang ei. Dettevar kjent fra før, men fortsatt et viktig skritt i retning europeiske leveranser. Så bekrefter de nok en gang mars som en kjekk europeisk Teslamåned :-)

Kan tenke meg at f.eks. Foliebeskyttelsen, barnesetene bak, spoiler og slikt gjøres i Europa for å spare personell i USA - og få bilene raskere over..
Samme som om du bestiller en Citroën i dag, så blir bla.a. Hengerfeste montert lokalt i Norge.

Mener også å ha hørt at batteri og bil sendes separat, og skal monteres i Nederland.

Høres tungvint ut, siden bilene da ikke kan kjøres på/av skipet. Jeg er skeptisk....;)

Bil og batteri blir nok ikke sendt separat.
Montering sv batteripakken tar 4 minutter og 30 sekunder (de tajmer den i National Geographics videoen).
Å flytte denne jobben ut og gjøre det til en lengre jobb, som samtidig hindrer Tesla i å enkelt flytte bilen - og ikke minst - kjøre den igjennom "burn-In"/testanlegget, er rett og slett bare dumt.

Tror det blir småting og mikk-makk det er hensiktsmessig å flytte ut av produksjonen.
