AutoBeta(AutoBeta.net)09/11 Report--
From now on, the price of Tesla's high-performance Model Y Performance model will be raised by 10000 yuan, starting at 387900 yuan, Tesla said on Weibo on Sept. 11. According to the official website, the delivery time is expected to be the fourth quarter of this year.
It is understood that at present, there are three models of Model Y on sale, namely, the standard continued version priced at 27.60 yuan, the long-lasting version priced at 347900 yuan, and the high-performance version priced at 388900 yuan. According to the data recently released by the Federation of passengers, Tesla sold 11576 Model Ys in August and 59900 Model Ys from January to August. Although we do not know the specific composition of Model Y sales, it is not difficult to guess the standard continued version > long-lasting version > high-performance version. Therefore, although the price of the high-performance version is increased by 10, 000 yuan, it is not expected to have a significant impact on the sales of Model Y.
The reason for the price increase for the Model Y high-performance version has not been officially explained, but speculation is still linked to cost. In March, Tesla raised the price of Model Y by 8000 yuan to 347900 yuan, which officials said was mainly affected by the company's rising manufacturing costs. In May, the standard continued version of Model 3 was raised by 1000 yuan, which was also affected by rising manufacturing costs.
It is generally believed in the industry that the fluctuation in manufacturing costs is due to the lack of core, and the temporary closure of Tesla's automobile factory has affected production due to the shortage of parts and components. According to Tesla's US website, with the exception of Model 3 and Model Y, the delivery of other models has been postponed to the end of this year or even next year.
As we all know, the scale of global automobile production is huge, and the demand for chips of automotive products continues to expand, while the overseas epidemic is still in a state of spread, resulting in the production of key auto parts can not be produced on time. Some people in the industry said that the epidemic in Malaysia has had a great impact on the chip industry, and the local production lines of many large international factories will be closed from time to time. Compared with the wafer factory, the degree of automation of the closed test plant is lower, and the production line needs a lot of workers, so it is more difficult to prevent and control the epidemic. At the same time, the epidemic situation has a great impact on logistics, and the delivery period is prolonged.
Industry insiders predict that the impact of the chip shortage on the domestic automobile industry is still not optimistic. Chen Shihua, deputy secretary general of the China Automobile Association, said that the chip shortage may lead to a reduction of 500000 to 700000 vehicles in the domestic automobile market in August, and it is highly probable that car sales in the third and fourth quarters will be negative compared with the same period last year, but the cumulative sales for the whole year will be higher than last year.
As Tesla uses direct sales, his products are greatly affected by the market, such as the increase in the cost of battery raw materials, chip shortage and so on may directly lead to an increase in price. Therefore, if Tesla suffers from the problem of chip supply for a long time, the price increase of other models in the future cannot be ruled out.
