Tesla postpones Model S/X Signature delivery event, leaving attendees holding the bag

Tesla has postponed its highly anticipated Signature Edition delivery event that was scheduled for May 12 at the Fremont factory. The company sent a brief email to attendees today — just three days before the event — offering no explanation and no new date.

The last-minute postponement is leaving buyers who already spent thousands of dollars on plane tickets and hotel reservations holding the bag.

Tesla’s email to invitees, which was shared on social media by Brooks Weisblat of DragTimes, reads in its entirety: “The Signature Edition Delivery Event scheduled for May 12, 2026, has been postponed. We apologize for any inconvenience.”

That’s it. No reason given, no rescheduled date, no mention of reimbursement for travel costs.
