Athlon Car Lease and electric
car maker Tesla Motors have teamed up to provide a lease option for
the manufacturer’s vehicles in Europe.
Through the deal Athlon, a
division of Dutch asset finance company De Lage Landen, will lease
the Tesla Roadster and Roadster Sport across the six of the nine
European countries in which it operates.
The Tesla cars will be
available initially to Athlon customers in Germany, France, Italy,
Spain, Belgium and the Netherlands which have been identified as
core markets for Tesla.
The option may become
available in Luxembourg, Poland and Portugal if there is
demand.
The companies plan to extend the deal to include the Tesla
Model S sedan in late 2012.
