From the FT in Feb 2018:
Tesla sales screeched to a halt in the last nine months of 2017 in Hong Kong, dubbed a “beacon city” by founder Elon Musk, after the government slashed a tax waiver for electric vehicles.
Touted as the city with the highest number of Teslas per capita by Mr Musk in early 2016, just 32 of the company’s vehicles were registered in Hong Kong between April and December, figures from the Transport Department showed. That is down from nearly 2,000 in the same period in 2016.
Generous tax breaks had buoyed the sale of Teslas, which are ubiquitous on the streets of Hong Kong. Removal of that break almost doubles the sticker price of a Tesla Model S 75D to HK$1.03m ($132,337).

For those who has tried the Alphard, can it comfortably fit 4 ppl + 7 bags? And does Klook cater to 3rd party bookings - ie I book the car, but my uncle +3 are the passengers?
or should I just sub my contact details with his and ask the driver to whatsapp him direct hmm. but I'm not very confident of him being able to connect to hkia wifi.
