Tesla, the automotive company founded by the billionaire Elon Musk, will open its first store in Chile on January 31. However, its cars will not be able to circulate in the country, since the company has not yet requested the corresponding authorization.

The opening of the Tesla store in the Parque Arauco mall in Las Condes It is a milestone for electromobility in Chile. However, the news has been overshadowed by uncertainty about the possibility that the company’s cars can circulate in the country.

According to the Ministry of Transport and Telecommunications (MTT), Tesla has not requested the corresponding authorization to sell its vehicles in Chile. This means that, at the moment, the company’s cars are not approved for circulation in the country.

Besides, Only the Tesla Model Y model is compatible with the public charging system in Chile. This means that, for the company’s other models to circulate in the country, Tesla would have to incorporate an adapter or develop its own charging infrastructure.

Despite these difficulties, Tesla has shown its interest in entering the Chilean market. The company has held meetings with the Government of Chile and has requested information on the requirements to install electric vehicle charging infrastructure.

The arrival of Tesla in Chile is good news for electromobility in the country. However, uncertainty about the possibility that the company’s cars can circulate in Chile could delay its launch.
