The May 12 invite-only event at Tesla's Fremont factory covered 350 buyers — 250 Model S and 100 Model X customers paying $159,420 each.
Attendees were told by email only three days before the event, with no reason, replacement date or indication whether travel costs or vehicle delivery schedules will be affected.
