Only foolish people will buy this “ELECTRIC” car in Nigeria

Nigeria that cannot provide 12hrs supply in a 24hrs day, that is where u go buy tesla!

All for the instagram

HenryDion:
If you're going to use a Tesla in Nigeria, make sure you go out with a full battery, and avoid long long-distance travel. We don't have charging ports in Nigeria yet. Correct me if I'm wrong.

You are correct sir

Saturn444:
Lagos is the worst place to drive electric car. Traffic is crazy, I think Akwa Ibom, Abuja are great.

Nigeria does not have sufficient supporting infrastructure for electric cars, talk-less sufficient electricity.

daddytime:
Lol

The guy for put prepaid meter or gen for the trunk na....

Overdo dey kill sometimes..

Naija lawa

Nigerians won't invent anything but we love to show off the latest.

Swag gone wrong!

How dem go do now?

Somethings no fit work for this useless country

After 61 years Nigeria couldn’t still get constant power supply right. When Neighboring countries can boast of uninterrupted power supply

Most nairalanders reading this haven’t experience uninterrupted power in Nigeria since they were born and their kids will experience the same

Too much hype about all these electric cars.

We do, but finding them is like finding a needle in a haystack.

Googling for charging stations in Lagos gives you six possible locations.

Of course it uses battery and battery dies if not charged

Money wey person for use buy iPhoneX pro for this Xmas, na him use buy toto Tesla

Fredinson:
In Naija where we hardly have low or no power supply, a Tesla car was seen parked on the Lagos mainland bridge which was as a result of it running out of battery. I guess Lagos traffic could have been the primary reason of the battery running out �

There are power Banks inverter that could charge that car , with up to 300000mah and 240 power supply plug

Hmm even though the car instruct appropriately.. I think he neglected the instructions.

Thank God it wasn't at night awon Omo wobe for magaram

That Tesla for don turn scrap.

Atleast, we see the first hand experience on how it will go with electric cars in Nigeria. Those that fancy it should think twice before buying it in Nigeria.

siofra:
It's negligence on the driver's side. The battery of a Tesla lasts long per charge.

If he can afford a Tesla he can afford a capable electricity generating plant to charge the car.

So ppl in US that own Tesla also have a mini electricity generating plant right? The greatest problem of this country is bunch of educated dumb citizens.

rentAcock:
He should carry a portable generator for situations like this.

Why not just buy a car that is using fuel because a generator does, two engine in one car for same purpose makes no sense.

Ha haha haha.. 9ja na ur mate?

Could be an alternator issue.

Laughable

He should have carried at least one extra battery.
With zero battery charging hubs across the city, how does he want to maintain this car in Lagos?

Nothing like fuel car

longetivity:
But traffic has reduced drastically in Lagos nah

Are you serious?

cornoil:
The owner doesn’t know that nothing works in Nigeria.

He doesn't know. Only corruption and insecurity works well in the country..

What?? Using a fosil burning generator to charge a Tesla is worse for the Creator of the car..

He was not informed

You better go buy "i pass my neighbor" dey run Nigeria road oo should in case because even our NEPA current no dey fit charge phone not to talk more of car.

I knew this will happen. It's the first of many that will still happen. Good thing is once you know your battery is almost empty, just look for a petrol station, pay them to watch your car for the night and jump molue to your destination.
