Tesla began delivering its electric vehicles (EVs) to its first customers in Israel over the past few months, and according to a new update, the company is now looking to open a physical store location within the country.
On Monday, Globes reported that Tesla plans to open its first store in Israel in the months to come, according to sources familiar with the matter. The company has hired CBRE international real estate management agency to help source a property, with contracts thought to already be close to signing, as reported by the sources.
The Tesla store in Israel is also set to include charging locations surround the building, for use by customers.

Tesla’s first store in Israel will be built centrally in Herzliya, and will be modeled after other Tesla stores around the world – perhaps like the Shanghai store, which is modeled after Gigafactory Shanghai.
Tesla has also already leased former storage location for Ferrari in Beit Kardan in Tel Aviv, with offices located in Petah Tikva. In addition, the company owns a pop-up location in the Ramat Aviv Mall in north Tel Aviv.
Earlier this year, Tesla also opened the first Supercharger station in Israel in Tel Aviv, with plans to add Supercharger stations in both Haifa and Eilat later this year.
