Tesla Motors Inc., maker of the 100 percent electric Tesla Roadster, opened its second company-owned sales and service facility in Menlo Park on Monday.

The store is located at 300 El Camino Real, just north of the Stanford Shopping Center, downtown Palo Alto and Stanford University.

San Carlos-based Tesla said the 40,000 square-foot facility replicates the unique Tesla brand experience of its flagship Los Angeles store on a larger scale. In addition to showcasing the roadster, the showroom is part museum, displaying several car models originally used for aerodynamic and styling studies, as well as exhibiting the bonded aluminum frame of the Tesla.

“Tesla is building its own stores to provide a unique, branded experience for Tesla customers and provide the highest level of service for our unique power train,” said Darryl Siry, senior vice president of Global Sales, Marketing & Service http://payday-badcredit.com. “We will continue to build our store network in the U.S. and in Europe, focusing initially on key markets for the Tesla Roadster and then expanding over time to cover broader distribution of the ‘Model S’ Sedan.”

The Menlo Park store is open to the public Tuesday through Saturday from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. and Sunday noon to 5 p.m. Test drives are available by appointment only.
