First look at Tesla Model 3 right-hand drive deliveries to UK customers

Tesla clients in the UK have begun taking delivery of the Model 3 sided driveway (RHD) vehicles following a two year-long wait since the all-electric midsize sedan surfaced in the US.

The Model 3 RHD variants were first seen on shipping trucks beyond London earlier this week by several eagle-eyed UK residents. CEO Elon Musk later confessed that the cars were intended for clients via Twitter after photographs made the rounds on news outlets and media. “Model 3 arriving in UK,” he supported , citing a post featuring the pictures.

Tesla’s online configurator was started to UK residents on May 1, as initially promised by Musk, and it seems that the very first RHD deliveries went out clients whose orders were placed on the days immediately after. Pictures shared with a newly-delivered Deep Blue Metallic Model 3 were first posted by a UK client who previously confirmed their arrangement on May 2nd. The exact early bird clients also seem to be those who received a text message in Tesla a week promising a June 20th shipping date.

As seen in photographs posted by one of the newest UK Model 3 motors, the symmetry of this vehicle has caused a seamless, mirror-image production of this left-hand drive version. Especially, the positioning of this automobile ’s picture to the touch screen is mirrored for right-hand drive clients. Elon Musk previously touted elements of this Model 3 layout which allowed multiple driving configurations with engineering and only minimal retooling.

Another UK client who bought a Pearl White Multi-Coat Model 3 RHD noted that his vehicle was one of an initial batch of 50 RHD deliveries. Many more wholesalers are reportedly arriving in the UK soon, however, according to a reservation holder along with Tesla Motors Club member that received a telephone in Tesla indicating the identical . Out of 1,000 cars on the freight ship Grand Mark, 150 of them are Model 3 RHD set for shipping in the end of June. Observing that shipment are two boats using 2,000 RHD cars every set in July and August, per the telephone in Tesla.
