Tesla China denies that it will push latest cars for 160,000 yuan

According to the report, Tesla’s Shanghai Super Factory will manufacture a third derivative electric model, the cost is expected to be controlled at around 160,000 yuan ($24,708.90 US). The Latin side responded that the news was untrue, but did not disclose more information.

As per the other reports, yesterday that Tesla will boost the production of a third Chinese model in the Shanghai Super Factory, positioning it lower than Model 3, and the cost is supposed to be between 150,000 and 200,000 yuan. Mass production and delivery to users can be achieved as soon as 2022.

It is worth mentioning that the local Model Y produced by Tesla’s Shanghai Gigafactory was officially launched on January 1. Including the new Model 3 facelift, Tesla’s orders for the first year are full, and even the sixth after the official sale.

The expected delivery date of the Model Y long-life version has been extended to the second quarter of 2021. In this way, it is really difficult for Tesla to have excess capacity for more derivative models, at least in the near future.

The current Tesla Model 3 standard battery life upgrade version starts at 249,900 yuan; the Model 3 high-performance version starts at 339,900 yuan; the Model Y long battery version is 339,900 yuan, and the high-performance version is 369,900 yuan, which has obvious advantages in the Chinese market.
