Tesla says it now has 200,000 customers in Australia

Why it matters: With that many Teslas on the road, there's now a big choice of used Model 3s and Model Ys.

Tesla says it has welcomed its 200,000th customer in Australia, marking the milestone in a post on X this week. It comes nearly 12 years after Tesla handed over its first Australian cars, nine Model S sedans, at an event in Sydney in December 2014. The figure is Tesla's own count of customers, not registration data or a year's sales.

How we work it out, and our sources

Weekly cost = the car's energy use × 250 km × your electricity or fuel price, with 90% of charging at home. Prices are list prices at November 2026; check with the dealer.

  • Electricity: 2026–27 default rates (AER, Victorian Default Offer, state retailers). Public charging: Sydney network prices, July 2026.
  • Petrol and diesel: capital-city daily averages from state government price feeds, via FuelRadar, 12 November 2026. Diesel for Hobart, Canberra and Darwin is estimated from the national fall.
  • Cars: maker figures via CarExpert, Drive, CarsGuide and EV Central. Plug-in electric range is taken as 80% of the claim.
  • Servicing: published capped prices; marked as an estimate where not yet published (CarExpert comparison).
  • Tyres: an EV set lasts about 35,000 km, a petrol or hybrid set 50,000 km (RACV); prices from Gridly.
  • Home charger: about $2,000 installed ($1,000–$3,000). Novated leases: PwC summary.
