Have you clicked 'Order Now' on Tesla.com – or are you considering it? Here is what happens step by step – based on Tesla's official delivery tasks.
Overview: The 9 Delivery Steps
After ordering, the Tesla app automatically opens a 'Delivery Tasks' list with 9 steps:
- Step 1: Delivery Information
- Step 2: Trade-in
- Step 3: Financing
- Step 4: Registration
- Step 5: Scheduling
- Step 6: Insurance
- Step 7: Final Payment
- Step 8: Agreements
- Step 9: Accept and Confirm
Steps 1–4: Setup
Delivery Information: Confirm your personal details, address and contact info.
Trade-in: Tesla gives a binding offer on your current car within 24-48 hours. Always compare with private sale – you often get 15-25% more.
Financing: Currently 0% interest on selected Model Y and Model 3 variants. Not obligatory – you can use your own bank.
Registration: Tesla handles all registration. Number plates are delivered with the car.
Steps 5–7: Practical
Scheduling: Choose when and where you want to receive the car – typically 1-4 weeks out.
Insurance: Must be active on delivery day – without it you cannot drive home.
Final Payment: Transfer the remaining amount 2-3 banking days before delivery.
Steps 8–9: Sign and Confirm
Agreements: All contracts signed digitally in the Tesla app. No paper, no notary.
Accept: Final confirmation – the order is locked and delivery confirmed.
Delivery Day – What Happens?
Allow 30-60 minutes. Check the car thoroughly before signing – any transport damage is Tesla's responsibility if documented before acceptance. Staff will walk you through basic functions and pair the car to your Tesla account.
