Les habillages d'usine de Tesla : Un investissement rentable ou une dépense coûteuse ?

Le buzz autour de Tesla’s new car wraps has been undeniable. While some enthusiasts are raving about the sleek, fresh look, others are questioning their cost. “Overpriced,” some say. But as noted Tesla expert Sawyer Merritt points out on Twitter, there’s much more to these wraps than meets the eye.

Plus qu'un simple emballage

Contrary to the initial assumption that Tesla’s offering is just another vinyl color wrap, Merritt reveals, “This isn’t really a traditional vinyl color wrap; it looks to be a urethane-based colored paint protection film (PPF).”

What’s the big deal about PPF? Well, this material uniquely marries the allure of colored vinyl with the robust protection features of PPF. Notably, PPF is thicker and possesses a self-healing attribute, meaning minor scratches can mend themselves over time.

Merritt souligne que, pour ces habillages, "Tesla précise également que, pour tous les habillages de couleur, l'installation comprendra les montants de la porte".

For the uninitiated, this means that the wrap’s color seamlessly extends when the doors are opened. Such an intricate detail “often requires taking the door off/apart,” making it a labor-intensive venture.

Une qualité qui vaut son pesant d'or

While the price tag of Tesla’s wraps may initially seem steep, a closer look provides clarity. The cost encompasses not just the material but also the installation of a self-healing paint-film.

Il ne s'agit pas d'un revêtement ordinaire ; il peut être ciré, poli et même recouvert d'une couche de céramique, tout comme une peinture automobile traditionnelle. En outre, le PPF offre une protection supérieure à la voiture, et son installation implique un processus méticuleux utilisant de l'eau et du savon.

"Le PPF couleur est plus rare et le PPF proposé par Tesla semble être un produit de très haute qualité", ajoute M. Merritt.

To put things in perspective, Merritt shares personal experience: “When I got quotes for a clear satin PPF for a Model Y (entire car) a while ago the average prices were about $7k-$8k including installation, and that was without any color.”

À emporter

Tesla isn’t just throwing in a fancy wrap for the sake of aesthetics. The wraps’ longevity and durability make them a sound investment, potentially lasting a decade. A

s Merritt aptly concludes, “In my opinion this is Tesla practicing and getting the hang of things before they eventually offer PPF/wraps for the Cybertruck.”

For those on the fence, it seems Tesla’s wraps might just be a worthy addition to their prized vehicles.
