Estimating your delivery date
About a month and a half before your vehicle enters production you will be assigned a vehicle identification number (VIN). This number is often required to secure 3rd party financing or set up insurance.
Your current estimated delivery time frames can be found in your Tesla account. Because a number of factors may impact timing – including shifting production schedules, option availability, and the logistics of transporting your vehicle – it's not uncommon to observe changes to this initial time frame.
Tesla Leasing
Tesla Leasing combines a low down payment and low monthly payments with significant tax advantages if you drive a Tesla for your business. Personalize your lease by choosing three or four-year terms, each offered with your choice of 16,000, 20,000, and 25,000 kilometer per year options. A $5,000 down payment and the first month’s lease payment is due at delivery.

Trade ins
Tesla accepts trade-ins towards the purchase of a Tesla in most states. To obtain a quote, log into your Tesla Account to submit your current vehicle information, or contact your Owner Advisor or Delivery Experience Specialist. Tesla will help coordinate an in-person vehicle inspection before providing you with an official trade-in offer. Quotes and offers are usually valid for a limited amount of time or miles driven.
Registration
In most cases, Tesla will register Model S on your behalf with your province's department of motor vehicles. Sales tax and registration fees will be collected as part of final payment. In some cases, your Model S will be considered an out-of-province purchase. Your Delivery Experience Specialist will let you know if this applies to you and provide you with the necessary paperwork to self register Model S. A temporary tag will be issued making your Model S legal to drive as soon as you take delivery.
If you wish to register your Model S to your business or trust, please update your registration preferences in My Tesla. We’ll make sure your registration paperwork reflects your choice. If you plan to finance your Model S, your registration must match your finance paperwork.
Final payment
Once you have finalized your payment and trade-in preferences, an itemized breakdown of options, taxes and registration fees will be available for you to view in the "My Documents" section of your Tesla account. Keep in mind that regardless of how close or far away you live from the Tesla Factory, all North American customers pay the same Delivery and Documentation Fee. Once these documents are generated, a payment module will appear in your profile to allow you to submit your final payment.
Taking delivery
As soon as possible, sign into your Tesla Account and verify your registration and delivery preferences. This will ensure a smooth delivery and registration process.
Prior to delivery we will need scanned copies of the driver’s license of each registered owner. The simplest method is to take a picture of your license with your phone and upload the picture in your Tesla Account’s documents section. In some cases, such as financing with Tesla, we’ll also need proof of active insurance.
