Larger Teslas for Everybody

When Musk first talked about the Tesla van, I knew it could be the Tesla I aimed to purchase. Coming from a Filipino-American household, I knew I’d want a much bigger Tesla. Whereas rising up in New Jersey, I used to be surrounded by household, and it simply saved rising by way of the years with extra infants, cousins, visiting kin, and many others.
For sure, we by no means actually slot in one automobile. We favored taking massive household journeys, and it could take no less than three automobiles to move all of us. At one level, we tried renting one massive van to move to the Poconos, and it wasn’t large enough due to everybody’s baggage. We celebrated every others milestones too and infrequently confirmed up for one another on particular events, so we additionally took up numerous parking area throughout graduations, household dinners, and many others.
So, the concept of a much bigger Tesla is nice for extra individuals than Musk would possibly assume. It isn’t nearly having extra infants, both. Now that I’ve a household, I understand that extra infants additionally takes extra individuals to look after them. Within the Philippines, the place I reside now, aunts, uncles, grandparents, and even cousins are extra concerned in household actions—and so they all want to slot in no less than one or two vehicles.
Final yr, my mother and father and two sisters visited the Philippines, and we totaled seven individuals, together with my husband, our son, and myself. Our automobile match roughly seven individuals, however I needed to borrow my uncle’s van throughout my mother and father and sisters’ keep so we might journey the Philippines AND carry our belongings.
When Tesla launched the Robovan, I used to be a bit of unhappy as a result of it was extra like a Tesla bus. A Tesla that’s a bit of larger than the Tesla Mannequin X or Mannequin Y and smaller than the Tesla Robovan with loads of cargo area can be nice for all Tesla prospects with larger households anyplace on this planet.
