The first Tesla Model S and Model X Plaid have already been unloaded and are on their way to the service centers.

Now it's finally that time again, the first ship, the Hoegh Transporter, has arrived in Zeebrugge/ Belgium and is already being unloaded. This is the first ship in over 2 years to finally bring Tesla Model S and Model X back to Europe. Exactly how many Tesla Model S and Model X will come to Europe is not yet known. For the time being, only Plaid customers reported having received a VIN assignment. Recently, however, there was also a VIN allocation for long-range customers, so that further vehicles could come to Europe on a possible second ship this year. Exactly how many Tesla Model S and Model X will come to Europe is currently unknown.

Contrary to initial claims that the yoke steering wheel known from the USA will not come to Europe, it is now also certain that the European models will also get the steering wheel known from racing. The European Tesla Model S and Model X Plaid will also get the full power of 1020 hp at peak and 300 km/h top speed. With the appropriate additional hardware, a top speed of up to 322 km/h is even possible according to the configurator and COC certificate. We are also expected to receive our Tesla Model S Plaid, which we ordered at the beginning of 2021, in the coming week and can then send you more detailed information.
