Tesla Model 3 was officially presented by the Tesla company during the past few days and the interest vis-à-vis the new electric car was huge, mainly due to the fact that it has a very good price for what it offers to people who want such products .
According to Tesla CEO Elon Musk, 232.000 pre-orders were registered in the first 24 hours after the presentation Tesla Model 3, and with one average price estimated by him at 42.000 dollars, Musk claims that his company a registered pre-orders worth 7.5 billion dollars.
The figures are astonishing for an electric car and if we think about the fact that last year Tesla sold 50.000 cars worldwide, the number of pre-orders registered for the Tesla Model 3 calls into question the company's ability to quickly manufacture so many cars.
Elon Musk stated in a tweet that Tesla must rethink its car production strategy in order to be able to fulfill all the pre-orders registered so far, but things will probably be finally resolved by the end of 2017, when the first deliveries must begin.
Through development Tesla Model 3, the people from Tesla proved that electric cars can be cool, but also cheap, and the Apple company has a lot of pressure behind it to create an electric car that is as popular, but also as bought by consumers.
Model 3 orders at 180,000 in 24 hours. Selling price w avg option mix prob $42k, so ~$7.5B in a day. Future of electric cars looking bright!
