Deliveries of the car are supposed to begin by the end of 2016, offering shoppers an all-electric option that has at least 215 miles of range. Tesla took $1,000 pre-orders for the car, of which they have already accepted roughly 400,000. Customers can get their money back anytime or decide to put it towards a Model S or Model X.
It is expected to take until 2020 for all of the Model 3s that have been pre-ordered to be delivered.
