In February of this year, Tesla‘s official flagship store on JD.com went online. However, currently only charging piles, mudguards, sunshades and other peripheral accessories are available for sale, as well as umbrellas, water bottles and other peripheral products. Cars have not been sold yet.
A knowledgeable source revealed that after JD.com launched the Tesla car ordering service, consumers will be able to pay a deposit on JD.com. This project is currently in progress, and ‘in a while, consumers will be able to place orders directly online.’
The report states that both Tesla China and JD.com officials declined to comment.
