Tesla is expected to start Model 3 production in mid-2017 and hit volume production at the end of the year. It is one of the most-anticipated electric vehicles and has been that for a long time now. People have shown tremendous trust in Tesla and its owner Elon Musk. However, a recent comment by Musk, involving US President Donald Trump's executive order to ban people from certain countries, has created a lot of backlash to the extent that some Tesla Model 3 pre-orders have been reportedly cancelled.

According to Electrek, Tesla Model 3 received an overwhelming number of pre-orders that now stands at nearly 400,000 pre-orders. Reservation holders paid $1,000 as deposit to pre-order a Model 3. News of cancellation has already been reported on social media where even hardcore Tesla fans have canceled their pre-orders in order to take a stand. Interestingly, Musk in fact disapproved President Trump's executive order but his disapproval was reportedly not strong enough for some Tesla fans.

While it is doubtful that a cancellation movement will gain enough momentum to dent Tesla's image, it is a signal for companies to be careful when commenting on social media. The Tesla Model 3 is one of the most-anticipated electric vehicles of 2017 and the hype it has generated along with the demand it has received is simply extraordinary.
