I wondered why they are called falcon doors...so I went googling and found some interessting information
The Tesla Store in Zurich is right next to the Falcon private Bank. (see attachement)
http://www.falconpb.com
This Bank is owned by Sheikh Mansour bin Zayed Al Nahyan (Abu Dhabi)
http://www.falconpb.com/de/unternehmen/ueber_uns/Seiten/Eigent%C3%BCmer.aspx
Sheikh Mansour bin Zayed Al Nahyan has invested in Tesla.
Sheikh Mansour invests $280m in Virgin Galactic - Telegraph
“….So far this year, Aabar has acquired a 9.1pc stake in Daimler, the German manufacturer of Mercedes-Benz cars, for €1.95bn (£1.2bn) and a stake in Tesla, the Californian-based electric car manufacturer. The deals represent Abu Dhabi's desire to diversify away from oil.
Aabar is controlled by the International Petroleum Investment Company, which is wholly owned by the government of Abu Dhabi and chaired by Sheikh Mansour.
--> Is that the reason they are called falcon doors?
(I hope not the same as EV1 happens to Tesla...if they get to sucessfull for a petrol investor...they seen to have everything under control)
