Tesla has already received 325,000 pre-orders for Model 3

Tesla Motors Company said about getting more than 325,000 pre-orders for the new model of the electric Tesla Model 3. If it will sell every pre-order the car, it will be "the biggest product launch in history", say company representatives. Just a few days ago it was a quarter of a million of orders, but the number of buyers continues to grow rapidly, despite the fact that the pre-order registration costs $ 1,000 bail. However, the company promises to return the money if the buyer changes his mind.

Accordingly, 325,000 cars ordered - a $ 325 million at the disposal of the Tesla, more than the company received during the exit for an IPO. By the way, if all the pre-orders will turn to buying, it means the inflow of the company ~ $ 14 billion At the same time the company has not invested heavily in advertising or paid promotion -. PR is self-evident. However, it is unclear - whether it is good that so many pre-orders, or not

@RyanHummer @elonmusk they'll probably crack 500k before then even -.! MindThreat ️️ (@mindthreat) April 3, 2016 g @ mindthreat @RyanHummer Yes, if the trend continues, before- Elon Musk (@elonmusk) April 3, 2016
 Model 3 is shipped to customers will begin no earlier than the end of 2017. No one can say whether the Tesla is able to cope with the load. It is possible that there will be setbacks terms. By Model X problems started already, by the way - instead of 4500 electric company was able to deliver in the first quarter of 2400. The total order is only 16,000 Tesla Motors was able to perform not only supplied 14,820 freight cars. But here we are about thousands of orders. But in the case of Tesla Model 3, the bill goes to the hundreds of thousands. Perhaps with the introduction to the work of "Gigafabriki Tesla» situation will improve, but whether the company is to fulfill all its obligations have time?

All can be, yet Elon Musk quite effectively solves many problems and copes with the work. With the amount of pre-orders the company miscalculated - by his own admission mask, the calculation was on the same tens of thousands, rather than hundreds. So it is necessary to be patient and see how the company will address this issue. If you are interested in the electric car, here's information on the new model available to date. Do you consider that the number of pre-orders Tesla Model 3 really will reach half a million? Yes, of course possible, but not sure No, it will not be voted 739 people. Abstain 89 people. Good or bad it is - multiple excess of the number of orders in relation to the original plan? Very good, Musk cope Actually not very much, but I'm sure that everything will be ok on this occasion It's horrible, the company will definitely be a huge problem Voted 735 people. Abstain 88 people.
