AutoBeta(AutoBeta.net)02/16 Report--

Compared with previous years, due to the impact of this year's epidemic, many car companies have responded to the call to "celebrate the Spring Festival on the spot". A number of car companies have also launched the service of "no closing time for the Spring Festival", and there is an endless stream of consumers watching cars and buying cars.

Tesla, as the leading enterprise of new energy vehicles in China, its popularity is not worse than that of other car enterprises. On the issue of pick-up time, a salesperson at Tesla experience Center in central Shanghai said, "Model 3 will pick up the car 3-5 weeks after placing an order," thepaper.cn reported. Model Y can not pick up the car until May or June when it places an order. In fact, as long as it places an order after January 4th, it is basically the same time to pick up the car. If an order is placed in April or May, Model Y will not pick up the car until at least October. "

"A lot of people place orders these days, even more than they did a year ago," the salesperson said. It doesn't make sense for us to count how many cars we sell in a day. Now our sales are more anxious to estimate how to let our customers get the car earlier, but there is no way to help customers jump the queue, we can only let customers wait in line according to the time of placing orders. "

Model Y is Tesla's second domestic model in China. It officially went on sale on January 1 this year. A total of two models, the long-lasting version and the high-performance version, were launched. The starting price of the long-lasting version of Model Y is 339900 yuan, a reduction of 148100 yuan from the previous price of 488000 yuan. The price of the Performance high-performance version starts at 369900 yuan, down 165100 yuan from the previous pre-price of 535000 yuan.

The Model Y, which was much lower than the expected price, became very popular in an instant, with Tesla stores overcrowded, ordering phones exploded, and even the official website crashed, making it another popular model after Tesla's Model 3. When the sale was announced, Tesla's official website showed that the delivery time was in January, but with the increase in the number of orders, only six days of delivery time became the second quarter.

It is understood that the price of Tesla's Model 3 standard life version is 249900 yuan, while Tesla Model Y's long-term flight version is 339900 yuan. Model 3 is a car model and Model Y is a SUV model. The difference in the minimum price between the two models is 90, 000 yuan, which means that two different consumer groups, coupled with such a big price reduction, Model 3 has been squeezed by Model Y.

According to data from the Federation of passengers, Tesla delivered a total of 15484 vehicles in January, of which Tesla Model 3 paid 13843, a month-on-month drop of 35.92%.

In addition, the relevant policies newly announced by the Shanghai municipal government have also promoted the hot sale of new energy vehicles. On February 10, the Shanghai Municipal Government recently announced the Shanghai measures for encouraging the purchase and use of New Energy vehicles, which makes it clear that individual users who do not use the Shanghai special license limit to register new energy vehicles can continue to apply for new energy special license quota free of charge. The measures will come into effect on March 1, 2021. From January 1 to February 28, 2021, consumers who buy new energy vehicles and apply for special licenses can still apply in accordance with the city's last round of new energy vehicle policies.

Before that, many consumers were worried that the government would no longer issue free licenses after buying new energy vehicles, so they had been waiting and watching. With the introduction of the new method, wait-and-see consumers placed orders decisively a year ago, which has become one of the important factors in the continued popularity of stores during the Spring Festival.
