Cheap lease deal to boost flagging Tesla sales

Tesla is pushing a lease programme which The Driven says is to get more EVs on Australian roads and boost Tesla’s flagging EV sales.

“We have taken a huge step toward demystifying Novated Leasing in Australia,” Tesla Australia and New Zealand country director Thom Drew says on LinkedIn.

“Our newly launched LeaseMyTesla program powered by Driva allows us to provide a digital-first customer experience and eliminate unnecessary fees and complexity.”

Meanwhile, Tesla has introduced a new blind spot warning system in an over-the-air (OTA) update for Tesla drivers to avoid opening vehicle doors in front of cars or vulnerable road users.
