MADISON, Ind., March 12, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Rotary Lift, the exclusive vehicle lift supplier to Tesla Motors, has installed Shockwave-equipped two-post vehicle lifts in all of the Tesla Service Centers in North America.

Like Tesla's Roadster and Model S electric cars, Rotary Lift's Shockwave-equipped lifts are battery-operated, clean, green and fast. Thanks in part to their patent-pending DC power units, Shockwave-equipped lifts are the world's fastest lift: twice as fast as standard lifts. This speed helps Tesla technicians perform battery swaps on owners' vehicles in just minutes.

And our use of sustainable battery electric power provides the added benefit of lowering facilities' lift installation and overall daily operating costs."

In addition to Shockwave-equipped lifts, Rotary Lift supplies Tesla Service Centers around the globe with its standard two-post lifts and four-post alignment lifts through Bosch Automotive Service Solutions. Bosch administers the Tesla equipment program globally and provides facility planning and installation for all of the manufacturer's global workshops.
