Tesla had permission to open a showroom at a former Hyundai dealership on Quaker Lane in Warwick. (WJAR)
Plans for a new Tesla store in Warwick have been put on hold indefinitely.
The electric car manufacturer received permission to open a store at a former Hyundai dealership on Quaker Lane, and the city's former mayor said in January that the store would open in the spring.
A spokesman for acting Mayor Joseph Solomon told the Providence Journal on Thursday that Tesla "will not be coming to Warwick at this time."
It was unclear if Tesla would open a store at another location, or if it will open a store in the state at all.
The company has declined to comment.
Tesla faced a hurdle coming to the state, as it sells cars directly from the company and state law prohibits manufacturers from selling without using a dealership.
There are three Tesla stores in Massachusetts and one gallery in Connecticut.
