During a visit to Tesla Motors’ Vancouver Service Centre Consul General Anne Callaghan test-drove the Tesla S and learned about the California-based manufacturer of electric cars’ expansion in Canada. Robin Peterson, Tesla’s Field Director for Western Canada, talked about upcoming plans for expansion, including the showroom set to open this spring on Robson Street in downtown Vancouver, and highlighted some exciting developments like the increased supercharger network that now allows Tesla owners to drive from Mexico to Vancouver at zero cost. The Vancouver Service Centre and the soon-to-open showroom will establish the company’s presence as they expand their operations in Canada.
