US electric car producer Tesla Motors Inc inked an agreement on Wednesday with real estate developer China Yintai Holdings Ltd to collaborate on a destination charging project.
Under the cooperation, the first Tesla charging facility, on Beijing's Chang'an Street, will be put into operation in the Beijing Yintai Center in the capital's central business district, providing free charging for Tesla vehicles.
According to Yintai, Tesla customers may leave their vehicles in the parking spaces, and while they are off shopping, the charging facility will power the cars for up to 100 km of driving.
