AutoBeta(AutoBeta.net)05/31 Report--

The price of the long-awaited domestic version Model 3 has been officially announced. The version on sale in 328000 is a standard battery life upgrade version, and the price of the imported version of the car in the United States is 377000 yuan. Even if the domestic version is not much cheaper, the difference between the two is less than 50, 000. I believe many netizens will even be disappointed.

It is worth noting that the imported standard life upgrade version already contains a basic driving assistance function worth 27800 yuan, while the domestic version castrated the configuration, so in the end, there is only a difference of 21200 yuan between the two. If you spend 20,000 less, you can get a domestic label. Do you think it is sincere enough, or is it worth it?

Tesla gave a clear message that the standard upgrade version of Model 3 produced by Shanghai Super Factory in China has 460km mileage, 0-100km/h acceleration time of 5.6s, top speed of up to 225km/h per hour, and the price is 328000 yuan. From now on, you will accept reservations and pay a deposit of 20,000 yuan. The earliest delivery time for the first batch of models is half a year, or 10 months at the latest.

Interestingly, a large number of netizens complained on Tesla's official Weibo account. The netizen who received the most likes pointed out: "what is the price guessing activity at this price? hold on when you have enough to eat!" More netizens point out that the price is insincere and unattractive. Some netizens even joked, "return a domestic wool, tear down the Shanghai factory!"

Li Xiang, founder of the car and home, had estimated that the domestic Model 3 would be sold directly from 25 to 270000, which would have an impact on independent manufacturers. But after the final pricing of the domestic Model 3 was announced, Li sent a Weibo message: "A very lucky number."

This "Geely" probably has two meanings: first, the price of domestic Tesla is not as low as expected, which gives domestic electric car companies a sigh of relief; second, the price is the same as the ideal ONE, and the price of the add-on electric car to be delivered in the fourth quarter of this year is also 328000 yuan after the ideal ONE subsidy.

He Xiaopeng, chairman of Guangzhou Xiaopeng Automobile, sent a special Weibo message, saying that Tesla's price must have been crushed. He said that the domestic version of Model3 is not competitive. "now it is completely different from that of five years ago. The battery advantage and intelligence of Tesla are no longer different from ours. After taking so many government policies and subsidies, it is still the same price, otherwise there is a problem with cost control, or we still want to get the profit margin of five years ago." The delivery time is estimated to be Q2 in 2020, and so Xiaopeng P7 will definitely roll over. "

With the rise in the field of electric vehicles, domestic brands have also broken through the price level of 300000 yuan, such as the subsidized price of 26-360000 yuan for BYD Tang EV and 35.80-498000 yuan for ES6, which is directly matched with Model 3 in price. Li Bin of NIO said earlier, "in the end, we have to compete for product power, experience and service. Even if the price of ES6 is the same as that of Model 3, which one would you choose?"

The price of domestic Model 3 is not as strong as previously expected, and the gap between domestic and imported versions is very small, and the predetermined quantity is believed to be not much. Tesla announced with great delight that the first order was completed within 3 minutes of the opening of the reservation. The scheduled number for the day was not announced as of press time.

According to the current situation, it may be beneficial to Tesla. As we all know, Musk's commitment to repeatedly jump tickets, as early as the end of the year to achieve domestic version delivery, is still very challenging, after all, production capacity has always been a problem that Tesla has to face. Construction of the super factory in Shanghai, China, officially began at the beginning of this year, and the plant is expected to be completed by the end of July. Trial production could start as early as September and small batch production of Model 3 will be available by the end of the year. The production layout and process of the Shanghai plant have been completely simplified, with the initial phase of the plant producing about 3000 Model 3 electric vehicles per week. It is crazy for a factory to grow from scratch in less than a year, and whether it can guarantee the output and quality is a question.

Tesla delivered 63000 new cars worldwide in the first quarter of this year, losing $668 million (about 4.612 billion yuan). Localized production and delivery in the Chinese market is crucial to Tesla's profit goal.
