All visitors can see firsthand the US carmaker's vehicle models, while those who make prior reservations will be given a chance to actually drive a Tesla car, according to officials from Tesla Korea.
The company is set to open an additional showroom in Cheongdam, a plush neighborhood in the capital Seoul, on Friday.
Currently, only the Model S 90D is available in South Korea, with actual deliveries of the car expected to begin in June.
The company, however, has been taking preorders for the Model X and the Model 3 cars as well.
No dates have been fixed for the local launch of the two vehicles. (Yonhap)
