So what you are saying is that all Tesla has to do to sell more Model S now is provide Model 3 test drives to current reservation holders, to shake loose those impending Model S sales?
Unfortunately, even if this were the case, we won't be seeing Model 3s in the showrooms anytime soon. I'm not sold on the idea of Model 3 test drives giving incentive for people to upgrade to an S. If anything it will make the people waiting more impatient and excited, but for those who chose the 3 for financial reasons, it's not going to change reality. For those who just want to get into a Tesla, it may or may not entice them to upgrade, but it's such a minority I doubt it would make a noticeable difference. I gave my opinion above as to a few reasons why people might opt for a CPO or inventory S as opposed to a heavily optioned 3. Now in its base form I think the 3 is the PERFECT entry level Tesla. Just enough goodies to put it several steps ahead of competitors, without being overly expensive. I spent a couple hours in the local dealership today chatting with some of the employees and I can't decide if I'm scared or excited based on the incredible amount of people displaying interest in the 3.. There will be lots of Teslas driving around in these next couple of years.
