Tesla has arrived in Germany, and the business seems to have disrupted the community electric vehicle market to such a degree a BMW and Daimler subsidiary would probably be buying 60 Tesla automobiles to enlarge its car fleet.

The latest report by German publication Sueddeutsche disclosed the strategy of mobility supplier FreeNow, formerly called Mytaxi, to buy electric cars from Tesla. The business is among the main mobility providers in Europe using its services.

The Hamburg-based mobility business was created in 2009 it had been purchased by Daimler at 2014. Last calendar year, Daimler surfaced with BMW for its mobility operations and both companies promised to pour at a billion euros to scale the brandnew. The joint venture contains Uber in its landscapes, and is poised to eventually challenge the ride-hailing program in Europe and Latin America.

Last calendar year, FreeNow reportedly served more passengers in Germany compared to the 2018 figures. It’s lineup of motorists also increased by 27 percent roughly 28,000 at Germany. Across all markets, it has a user base of 90 million people.

It is not surprising to see Tesla will be the go-to carmaker of mobility providers in Germany and the rest of Europe, particularly those who run an electric car fleet. The Model 3 mass-produced automobile, for instance, will also be adopted by German cab operator Taxi Norman due to the potential enormous savings in fuel and upkeep costs offered by the car.

Another potential reason mobility providers would love Tesla vehicles is because these electric cars are almost future-proof. The electric car maker can push over-the-air upgrades to enhance the vehicles’ performance or increase their features.

Obviously, one cannot ignore that all these Tesla electric vehicles will probably end up Robotaxis once Musk and his staff perfect its Full Self-Driving technologies and pass the requirements of regulators. Tesla’s neural network also has been improve and evolve as a growing number of information are fed to it from the fleet of Teslas on the road today.

According to estimates, FreeNow raked in 2.4 billion euros in 2019 and plans to double this year. “We are aware that it’s competitive and really ambitious, however, we would like to double our revenue again while further improving our profitability,” said FreeNow CEO Marc Berg.

It appears, as the cliche goes, Tesla really walks the walk to a stage that German automotive giants trust its goods and rely on them to attain their own ambitious business goals.

As Tesla sets its foothold in Germany with the building of Gigafactory 4 at Brandenburg and the ultimate production of electric vehicles to the country and the remainder of Europe, it won’t be a stretch to assume that more mobility providers would tap Tesla when they transition to electric vehicle fleets.
