Time and again, Tesla CEO Elon Musk has received criticism from customers regarding how poorly the company is handling the production of its Tesla Model 3. Currently, the California-based automotive startup uses trucks, trains, and planes to deliver the electric cars ordered by its customers.
Musk even made one of the deliveries himself, claiming how convenient it was. But the truth is that despite customers listing themselves as wanting to buy the Tesla Model 3, most of them have yet to receive their cars, Quartz reported.
It is estimated that around 420,000 people haven’t gotten their Tesla Model 3, which currently sit in Tesla’s parking lot in Fremont, California. Logistics seem to be the root cause for the delivery issues, a problem that Musk and his team haven’t solved yet.
The car was unveiled back in March 2016, with the company promising customers that the base model will only cost $35,000. Within two days, over 276,000 thousand people signed up to get their hands on the steering wheel of the Tesla Model 3. A year after the first batch of the electric vehicles was released, only 28,000 were delivered by the company while others waited until the buzz for the car finally died down.
What’s more, despite the $35,000 price tag promised by Musk, the Tesla Model 3 is currently priced at around $78,000, further frustrating the people who signed up for it in the place. But those who already own the vehicle have said good things about it.
One satisfied customer recently tweeted how it used the Tesla Model 3 as a camping car and showed off how much luggage the electric vehicle can accommodate with five people already in the car. The huge trunk is attributed to the car’s design and how it’s only powered by a battery rather than a huge engine guzzling gas.
