Tesla CEO Elon Musk said on Sunday that he would implement “many of the suggestions” floated by a New York couple who took out a full-page ad in a local Silicon Valley newspaper.
The letter, signed by “two VERY satisfied Tesla owners” from Southold, New York, asks for the car’s cupholders to be moved forward, its center console to be redesigned, and sensors that beep to alert drivers when objects are close, among other requests. It was printed in the Palo Alto Weekly.
The couple also thought Musk could do a bit better in the marketing department.
“People are fascinated by my Tesla, and my wife’s Tesla,” they wrote. “Promotion of your cars to the general public could only have a positive effect, creating many additional enthusiastic Tesla owners.”
In response to the very public customer feedback, Musk tweeted a photo of the open letter to his nearly 860,000 followers.
Ad taken out in Palo Alto Daily by two Model S owners is right. Many of the suggestions will be implemented soon.
Tesla did not immediately respond to questions from The Huffington Post about which changes it would make or when it plans to implement them.
