The automaker finally nabs its place in birth place of auto industry


Tesla has finally gained access into a market that it had previously been barred from operating in. Tesla received the rights to operate and sell its electric vehicles under a subsidiary in the state of Michigan, the birthplace of the auto industry. The automaker has been trying for years to break into the Michigan market, so this is perceived as a huge win for Tesla.

Electric vehicles are quickly becoming common place in the auto industry. A few years ago, your options may have been very limited if this was the route you wanted to take when purchasing a vehicle. However, in 2020 there are plenty of auto makers that have joined the trend of producing more eco-friendly options. There are, of course, some obvious front runners, as there is with any product. Each vehicle that is one of the top choices for electric vehicles has a range of at least 200 miles before needing to be recharged.
