HOW DOES THE AVAILABILITY OF TESLA SERVICE FACILITIES AFFECT SALES OF ELECTRIC CARS?

HOW DOES THE AVAILABILITY OF TESLA SERVICE FACILITIES AFFECT SALES OF ELECTRIC CARS?

 

 

Global sales of electric cars are growing at a fast pace. There are many reasons why electric cars have become so popular, and a continuous reduction in prices is one of them. Tesla electric cars are becoming more and more affordable – the American manufacturer cut down the price on the most trendy models (Model 3, Model S, and Model X), except for a brand-new Model Y. 

However, some people still remain wary of electric cars, and with a good reason – timely maintenance is "a must" when it comes to their reliable and efficient performance.  

A lack or sometimes even absence of specialized workshops for electric vehicles also hampers the expansion of electric cars. Though, the situation is changing. Car service facilities are getting refit, new workshops with specialization in electric car maintenance and repair are being opened, and the workshop owners are buying special repair equipment and tools to provide quality services for electric cars.       

Scan tool LOKI Tesla is one of the most in-demand devices for garage specialists engaged in Tesla diagnostics and repair.
