I'm in Victoria driving my Tesla around quite a lot and I've noticed over the previous few months people are starting to have the same alphabet letters as me at the start of their number plates ( I have custom plates, hence a V-###.....is this just me or is this something Vicroads does with similar model cars?

Rego plates: Is it just me?

It is not the model in NSW at least, is is just the order of registration. I see a lot of Teslas with the currently highest NSW rego number just because there are so many new Teslas out there and they are easy to spot. Have a look at other very new cars out there and see if it is more recency of manufacture rather than specific car
It's not unusual for a dealer to receive a bulk block of plates in sequential order, they then place them on cars they sell/deliver as necessary, and get a new block of plates when they're getting low. Because all Teslas are delivered from one or two delivery centres per state, those blocks will be a lot more obvious, being on 2 models of Tesla, versus 35 models of legacy brands.
And we’ve just gone through the “EVx-nnx” series in NSW. Very cool to see lots of Teslas out there with “EV” rego plates
My neighbour across the road took delivery of his Model Y last month and his plates begin with “EY”. He doesn’t have offstreet parking either, but that didn’t stop him exiting the ICE age.
For whatever reason it looks like they skipped the EVx and went to EWx, and then went back to the EVx afterwardsAnd we’ve just gone through the “EVx-nnx” series in NSW. Very cool to see lots of Teslas out there with “EV” rego plates

And this afternoon I saw an FAV-NNX in regional NSW (Newcastle area), so some dealers have probably got early batches of FXX-NNN plates
If you get assigned FAT-nnx you have to get massive tubbed guards and extra-wide tyres, it's the law.
ELO-42N is not on any car, neither is ELO-69N and several others. Not a single combination is on a Tesla.Which makes me think… presumably there are a number of Teslas out there with ELO-nnN plates?
. I guess it’s only 100 plates My M3 came with EY as well. Delivered last week. The carrier was all Model 3s, sequential order. One for me and the rest were staff cars for Essential Energy.And we’ve just gone through the “EVx-nnx” series in NSW. Very cool to see lots of Teslas out there with “EV” rego plates

Mine is in the EXH-xxn range, was just glad I managed to avoid EXH45T.
