AutoBeta(AutoBeta.net)08/15 Report--

Not long ago, pinduoduo had a group-buying activity of Tesla Model 3, which was 20, 000 yuan cheaper than Tesla's official website, but Tesla's delivery staff refused to deliver the vehicle to the group-buying consumer on the ground of "forbidding order resale". The consumer paid the money but was unable to pick up the car, which quickly aroused heated discussion among netizens after the news was exposed.

With regard to Tesla's refusal to deliver the vehicle to pinduoduo's group purchase owner, pinduoduo's "second effort" business group Love responded that it had been confirmed from this consumer that the vehicle was an order agreement signed between the consumer and Tesla. Consumers do not have any intention and intention to resell for their own use, and their car purchases do not have any "malice".

Love said that Tesla refused to perform the contract with consumers, as a "subsidy" side of an industry waiter, expressed regret, support consumers to safeguard their rights in accordance with the law, and will actively implement the vehicle delivery work.

It is understood that in July this year, the group purchase activity of Model 3 appeared on pinduoduo's platform. The group purchase price for 10,000 people was 251800 yuan, about 20,000 yuan cheaper than the subsidized guide price of Tesla's official website, and the organizer was suitable to buy a car.

Shortly after the event was launched, Tesla issued a statement in response, saying that he did not have any cooperation with Yi Buy or pinduoduo on the group purchase activity, nor did he have any form of entrusted sales service with Yi Buy or pinduoduo. Nor have we sold any production vehicles to Yi Buy or pinduoduo for this group purchase activity.

Then pinduoduo responded that it had been verified with the merchants that the car was authentic Tesla, and the subsidy was real. Appropriate to buy a car customer service also said that the Tesla vehicle launched by flash sale activity is a genuine new car, only 5 black models, do not support stages. After the user has successfully ordered the car, it is appropriate to contact the customer to confirm the relevant information and complete the delivery within 30 working days after the customer's final payment.

On August 14, the news that Tesla refused to deliver Model 3 to the group buyer spread like wildfire. Tesla's delivery commissioner claimed that pinduoduo and Yi bought the car in violation of the no-resale clause clearly stipulated in Tesla's car order terms, and Tesla would cancel the order according to the buyer's breach of contract clause, and advised the Wuhan car owner to place the order through Tesla's official channel.

Tesla China responded in an interview that "the company has publicly made it clear in several channels that Tesla's official website is the only formal channel for buying new cars, and has never commissioned other platforms or merchants to carry out sales activities." In the car purchase agreement signed by Tesla and the customer, it is also clearly stated that the company has the right to unilaterally rescind any order involving resale.

Tesla's refusal to deliver also attracted the attention of netizens, who said that Tesla clearly marked "no resale" in the purchase agreement, and Tesla was not at fault in refusing to deliver. Some netizens said that the car owner did not pay a penny less, the subsidy was given by pinduoduo, Tesla did not make less money, and Tesla had no reason not to deliver.

Tesla refused to deliver Model 3 to pinduoduo group-buying car owners because he did not meet the delivery policy, which was instantly hotly discussed by netizens. So the question is, is there any problem with Tesla refusing to deliver to pinduoduo group-buying car owners? who do you think is more reasonable?

Pinduoduo's response to the "five Tesla" incident:

Hope that consumers can be treated kindly.

This afternoon, Tesla said that he had refused to deliver Model 3 to the group-buying owners of pinduoduo's "time-limited second kill" channel, claiming that the consumers were suspected of violating Tesla's "ban on resale" clause. Tesla will cancel the order unilaterally in accordance with the terms of breach of contract.

As a second career waiter, I learned from consumers that the situation is as follows:

1. The consumer took the initiative to inform Tesla that he had accepted the subsidy of Puduo. However, it is true that he and Tesla independently signed an order contract, and the consumer himself issued an order on Tesla's official website and will not resell it, but will only be explicitly refused to deliver by Tesla for his own use.

2. Pinduoduo and Yi buy a car. According to the promise of the event, they have provided the consumer with a subsidy of 20, 000 yuan.

3. Tesla, as a subsidy, expressed regret over Tesla's refusal to perform the contract concluded with consumers, but we support consumers to protect their rights in accordance with the law and actively implement vehicle delivery.
