    2017 FRT Renewal

    Can MS and MX be registered as commercial vehicle (e.g. As light goods vehicle, just like defender or ford ranger in HK)? I tried to look on TD's website and seems no information regarding the definition of LGV except it has to be below 5.5 tonne and only 5 seats is allowed. May be need to...

    2017 FRT Renewal

    What they should do is actually increase the FRT for non-electric private car if they really want to reduce the traffic, instead of cutting the tax incentive for EV. Afterall they are trying to move people from using fossil fuel car into clean energy car, or are they not? It is very difficult to...

    HK: Model X Deposit date - confirmation - Sequence # - expected delivery

    I once heard from some Tesla staff that the cars are shipped to HK in batch of either ~50 or ~100.

    Supercharging Idling Fee

    Will the charge pass to the next owner when the car is sold? Either way I don't think paying at service centre is going to be very effective in eliminating inconsiderate drivers.

    AutoPilot 2.0 on Confirmed Order

    i am hoping that as we have already paid $19,400 for AP1, we will get a discount for upgrading to Enhanced AP / Full AP? or will they just throw in the Enhanced AP to us for free?

    AutoPilot 2.0 on Confirmed Order

    Your invoice wont change, but it will be delivered with AP2.0. This is from my previous experience in MS, they wont bother in changing the invoice, you just need to trust them. One thing is unclear tho is if I have added the autopilot option prior to the release, does this mean I am going to...

    Model X P100D upgrade

    Is anyone interested and be contacted by tesla about the P100D upgrade for MX? Apparently I was told that while P90D can make it into Q1 2017, upgrading to 100 will push to delivery to Q2 (risking the FRT exemption) Also, tesla want me to decide by this week Any thought? Or anyone heard...

    Thinking about getting white seats??

    I also wonder how the white seats are holding up under wet conditions (e.g. wet weather, sweats, rain, etc..). In my MS after 20,000km, the tan leather has already got some blue and grey stains in areas where my jeans rub against most.

    Self closing charge port door

    As far as I was told, HK is not getting the auto-close charger port because of the larger connector we use.

    New fuse box design? (RHD, Jul/Aug15 produce)

    Was trying to install dash cam for my P85D (RHD, produced in Jul1/Aug5), popped out the plastic cover in the frunk, and surprisingly I saw this: Fuse box #2 and Fuse box #3 have merged into one, and I could not find Fuse box #1 either. I looked through the manual in my car, the manual is...

    Model X Signature Configuration has begun!

    I think the second row seat simply doesn't fold. And fold flat only applies to the third row seats. On the other hand, I really hope the MX to have an adjustable headrest option. In my MS, it is blocking most of my rear window view.

    Delay in dual motors version delivery

    My status also changed from "estimated date" to "preferred date". I am starting to worry that this is because of some unforeseeable delay and they are no longer able to give us the estimate date anymore.

    Your Model S is in transit from the factory

    Mine is still in production (since 5th June). It is taking a long time for them to build, and I hope this means better quality ;)

    The Tesla Factory is building your Model S (P85D RHD)

    Were you informed over the phone or on MyTesla website? Coz my ETD is also July, but MyTesla still shows in queue.

    Model X is sold out for the 1st year.

    Don't think it is able to reach Hong Kong in 2015 anyway... Think there is going to be a at least 6 months gap before the first RHD is available

    Delay in dual motors version delivery

    mine too changed to July. I am guessing may be they got a revised shipment schedule. How long it takes for shipment will depend on the ship schedule. and finally they assigned a VIN to me also. It is >86k already.

    Hong Kong Hybrid + Fuel Efficient FRT tax incentive to end!

    "The tax incentive scheme for environment-friendly petrol private cars will be terminated on April 1, 2015. " - It is only for PETROL private car, so pure EV not affected. i am more interested to know whether this ends the incentive for those plug-in hybrid (i8, panamera ehybrid, etc.). It may...

    Delay in dual motors version delivery

    Just been told by DS, the delivery schedule will be pushed back from June to August. Anyone with June delivery got the same message also? This is their explaination: The delay comes from the availability of a critical system for the right hand drive version of the dual motor Model S. We have...

    VW eGolf in Hong Kong

    I think it is a pure EV. They had a test drive event for the Golf EV at airport expo a few years back. It drove like a normal Golf apart from the regenerative braking and it wasn't as "mind blowing" as the MS when I first test drove it. It looks exactly like a normal ICE Golf also. With that...

    Next-gen REAR seats no longer available for new orders, please post feedback on yours

    I too got a phone call from Tesla this morning asking me if I would like to keep the next gen rear seat or not. (Ordered a P85D with next gen seat) Apparently they are counting how many more next gen rear seats they are going to order for those who have already ordered the next gen seats. Seems...

    New Blog: Driving Range for Model S Family....

    I understand that the vehicle have different acceleration. But putting the acceleration factor aside, by looking at the table of the cursing range below, there are still no improvement over the rated range of P85D over P85/P85+. From what I understand, by having a second motor at the front...

    New Blog: Driving Range for Model S Family....

    Something I dont understand about the range of P85D. Elon said that dual motor can help to improve of efficiency of the MS, thats why S85D has a better range than S85. (270mi vs 265mi) But for P85D, its range is actually lower than P85 / S85 / P85+ Does anyone know what causes the decrease in...

    Autopilot in Hong Kong?

    I think it might be the frequency that the radar used in the Mercedes that is causing the problems. Then that explains why radar is allowed on some cars but not others. Hope tesla is not adapting the radar from the merc...

    Speed Assist and Lane Departure Warning

    Compare with the picture of the test vehicle, the "cut-out" area seems to be opaque (or is it because of the reflection?). I wonder how the camera is able to see through the windshield. Is the camera sensing infra-red image instead?

    Hi ThomasC, I am living around there also! :biggrin: When is your expected delivery? How are you planning to charge your vehicle? According to the building management at by building, no residential carpark in the Kowloon station cluster can have any chargers installed. :(

    Charger solution on private car parking space

    For my case, the building management in fact did not refuse my application right away. They actually permitted the the installation of the charger, on the condition that I would need to run my own cable conduits all the way from the meter room to my parking space (compare to simply running the...

    Charger solution on private car parking space

    HK: Model S Deposit date - confirmation - Sequence # - expected delivery
