PITTSBURGH — With an oversized gumball machine full of cars already set up on the long-delayed master plan along Interstate 79, Newbury Market may soon have another next generation car business set up as a draw for the South Fayette development.

Tesla Inc., the electric car company lead by billionaire Elon Musk, is on the agenda for the South Fayette Planning Commission to establish a new location at Newbury, where the region’s first Carvana store has been operating next to the development’s Top Golf location.
