It’s a given that you’ll celebrate the end of your long wait for delivery. Congrats and enjoy! After that comes the inevitable question: How do I keep my Tesla in delivery-day condition as long as possible?
The urge driving this question is good – for the long-term value of your vehicle and confidence on the road. Don’t fight your urge to preserve the pristine condition of your new machine. Let it rule. There are lots of things you can do, but first, make sure you’ve invested in three key types of protective coverage. This will prepare your Tesla for years of supercharger stops and software updates.
Auto Insurance – coverage for unexpected incidents
Floor Mats – coverage for a key area in your interior
Paint Protection Film (PPF) – coverage that helps safeguard your finish
Shopping for Insurance
Many major auto insurance carriers will cover a Tesla – but some may not be prepared for the atypical repair scenarios that come with electric engines or aluminum body parts. When you shop for insurance, ask questions and consider major carriers as well as Tesla’s own auto insurance. This is a little more work than updating your current policy, but it can prevent the headaches that come with longer waits for claim resolutions and repairs.
Floor Mat Considerations
Your Tesla’s interior footwell may not stand up to slush, dirt and long-term abuse from your feet. It also can’t be personalized. Floor mats customize your interior while also protecting it. This is a plus at resale. Think about fit, weather, lifestyle and personal style when you’re making your choice.
Powerful PPF Benefits
Flying road debris, car wash swirl marks, and even pollen or dust can permanently mar your Tesla’s finish. Technologically advanced SunTek PPF offers a combination of top quality PPF features precisely engineered to satisfy perfectionists:
Molecular structure that readjusts with sun or engine heat, making scratches disappear.
Hydrophobic top coat resists stains from gas, oil and car exhaust for easy cleaning.
Gloss or matte, it’s optically clear and smooth so it blends into your finish.
A 5- or 10-year manufacturer’s limited warranty is included.
You can wax it or top it with ceramic coating without voiding the warranty.
Professionally installed using a custom-calibrated TruCut system for precise Tesla fit.
Spot Coverage or Full Wrap?
The question really isn’t if you should get SunTek PPF, it’s where. Spot coverage protects areas that take a beating, while a full wrap shields your entire finish. SunTek dealers have observed that Tesla owners choose the full wrap more often than owners of other car brands. We invite you to tell us what you’ll do, and why, in the comments.
