Tesla's plugs are proprietary. Besides even if the plug is compatible, they can lock out others because there is also a software standard. They haven't done so yet, but it is an option available.

yeah for employees/current owners
then next priority is US west coast...no word on Canada. If you didn't line-up or reserve the eve of the announcement I'd hazard a guess you won't get delivery until H2 2019. Don't forget that the X despite being a different beast was delayed twice by almost 2 years



I don't think there's any in Europe? just the one in Fremont and the gigafactory in Nevada that's not even fully operational yet. I think there's talks about opening another gigafactory in Japan
