Tesla, in conjunction with Tesla Owners Club New York State (TOCNYS), will bring a fleet of new Tesla vehicles to demonstrate the technology of the most popular EVs on the market, including Model 3, to Western New York. This free test drive event, open to the public, takes place from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Saturday, April 27, and 10 a.m. until 2 p.m. Sunday, April 28, in the parking lot facing Brennan’s Bowery Bar & Restaurant, 4401 Transit Road, Clarence.

The location is adjacent to the local Tesla Supercharger, the high-speed charging station that enables routine long-distance travel. Vehicles on site will include Model S, Model X and Model 3, representing all current platforms in production at the company, and Tesla staff will provide test-drives on a first-come, first-served basis to those who pre-register at http://bit.do/buffalotestdrive.

TOCNYS founder Patrick Ho said, “Members attending with their own vehicles will engage the public and share their unique ownership experiences. Attendees will also learn more about energy products and solar components that Tesla produces in Buffalo at Gigafactory 2.”

This marks the second collaboration between Tesla and TOCNYS. A similar event in Rochester last December provided more than 30 test-drives. These mobile informational events offer upstate residents a hands-on opportunity without hours of travel to a physical Tesla location.
