Tesla Japan says that free-charging campaigns and other factors have caused a big surge in demand, disrupting the supply balance.
To handle the higher volume, Tesla introduced an AI agent into its delivery process in July. It automates tasks from order placement through vehicle handover.
The company has also begun importing through Mikawa Port in Aichi Prefecture alongside its existing route through Daikoku Wharf in Yokohama. The two-port setup increases annual import capacity to about 48,000 vehicles, roughly double what Tesla had before.
