    Tesla Model 3 in Australia

    I have been a strong supporter of Tesla and reserved the day before reveal, but that live stream was garbage (why live stream no new details!? it was basically a staff meeting) and the confirmation of 2019 right hand drive markets in there new FAQ makes me want to cancel. 3 years is defiantly a...

    Tesla Model 3 in Australia

    The only offical word from Tesla on Model 3 deliveries is that all current reservation holders as of October will be completed before Mid 2018 worldwide. That is displayed on the website for millions of people to see - "Delivery estimate for new reservations is mid 2018 or later." I do...

    Powerwall in Australia

    Tesla Powerwall Powerwall 2 now with integrated inverter and 13.5 kWh usable energy. Total estimate installed now from $9,450* AUD I really liked the design of the 1st Gen, but this may be easier to manufacture and fit the components. Very good improvements

    Model X Launch In Oz

    Photo from a different centre unfortunately, that's definitely not the Kmart in Robina Town Centre. Might just go down tomorrow or Sunday at the latest and find it, will post back the location if anyone else was interested!

    Model X Launch In Oz

    Meet Model X Does any Queenslander know where abouts in the Robina centre they have them on display? Wanting to go this weekend, says to contact them for the location but I don't think they will respond right away

    Tesla Model 3 in Australia

    An interesting update on the Tesla website for Model 3 holders here in Australia. The info page now displays: "Production begins mid 2017. Delivery estimate for new reservations is mid 2018 or later." This was previously only written on the US version of the site - international versions just...

    Nag on Lane Change

    Test drove the S back in Nov and noticed that it requires it every time too. After watching so many videos online from release, trying it on the motorway I didn't think to apply any pressure but he told me it had to be done or wouldn't switch (it just kept indicating and wouldn't change over)...

    AGL announces $1 a day all-you-can-charge electric vehicle program.

    I think the good thing about there "deal" (depending what the T&C's end up) is that the general population who doesn't know or want to learn about the best rates, off-peak/charging at night only/day only on solar or how many kWh are used to calculate that. It's a basic "You pay max $1 a day...

    Sydney Store Opening June 30, 2016

    I was hoping the website's "2016" supercharger map that includes Brisbane would have the store at least announced by now! Half way through June and I don't think the Byron Bay one is even really started yet

    MS price drop??

    Tesla in Australia I had noticed it the day it got reduced, had a quick chat about it from the post linked above. RichardMcN got in contact with the Sydney CS and they were surprised too

    Upgrade to 75KWh

    I would say it's more after delivery, they might just not have prices set until the new ones start arriving here. In the U.S it's $3000 if done during order or $3250 to have "activated" later on.

    Tesla in Australia

    The base price is shown when you click "Show selected options" in the configurator just under the delivery month, it's the price - all the taxes which change by state. So great to see they are sticking with currency updates, as I remember the increase back in Nov "15 was substantial as well...

    Working for Tesla

    A couple of months ago some Product Specialist positions were advertised (and filled) for Brisbane. I'd say the service and sales centre will be done this year at some stage and they will need more staff, feel for them being stuck in the shopping centres.

    Model 3 Reservations List - Australian TMC Edition

    Announced today that worldwide reservations are over 325k in 1 week. Really interested to know what the Australian number would be. Any guesses if its in the 100's, or 1000's?

    Model 3 Unveiling and Reservation

    Here is a few more "in the wild" shots from today. I'm liking the front end hopefully it doesn't get changed too much before production!

    Tesla in Western Australia

    Brisbane/SE Qld as well! There is permanent staff here but they have no "workplace" - currently at a popup in the shopping centre. At least we know the superchargers are on the way here, thats a start.

    Most markets will have a license plate as well on the front to break it up remember. I really like it either way

    Model 3 Unveiling and Reservation

    First drive video has been uploaded. Love the design! So glad I reserved in store this morning, hopefully got infront of some online orders. They talk more about details in this video also : Moderator note Had to remove Facebook media link as it was causing page load issues.

    Tesla in Queensland

    Thanks for posting LGGD! I was going to make my way there this morning but decided to wait on the web orders tomorrow. Hopefully the turn out motivates them to get a store and service centre in Brisbane sometime soon!

    SYD - BNE Supercharger Route

    Awesome :) I had the same thought as baillies, that they probably didn't remove the old markers when adding the new ones by mistake. Glad I helped out a bit! Would Heath have more details on how much in AUD the model 3 reservation will be, I would of thought they could reserve early like U.S...

    SYD - BNE Supercharger Route

    Has anyone else checked out the offical Supercharger map on teslamotors.com in the last few days? When you select the 2016 option it shows a lot more "coming soon" locations now than it originally did. Either it's glitched of there going all out

    Small Generator as backup

    Is this from being worried it will run out of charge? 2 good points, - there are far more power points than petrol stations in the country - you get road side assistance Depending on what model it was, you have to watch the range gauge go from about 420km-520km all the way to below zero (it...

    Tesla in Australia

    A question on Australian ordering and our taxes, and apologies if this has been brought up elsewhere. When selecting Autopilot ($3,800) it actually adds over 5k to the total cost as stamp duty and luxury tax go up. So if that's the case is it actually cheaper to enable after delivery for $4500...

    SYD - BNE Supercharger Route

    Many people would stop to holiday on the Gold Coast tho without ever going to Brisbane, would still make sense to have one and get fully charged for the stay and just before heading off. Would also be good for people who travel south from the Sunshine Coast, they would not have to make a stop so...

    Aust Price Rise Nov 2015

    Hopefully next years price adjustments are all down, wishful thinking tho. At least as the Model 3 payments begin. AUD to USD value is costing quite a bit! 10's of thousands added to the S in the last 12 months. I'm sure the Aus sales team hate it just as much as the buyers
