AutoBeta(AutoBeta.net)02/28 Report--

The first batch of Tesla Model 3 arrived in Tianjin Port on Feb. 12, and the delivery ceremony of Model 3 in China market was officially held at Tesla Beijing Golden Port experience Center on February 22nd, which marked the official landing of another strategic model of Tesla in the Chinese market. This time the delivery of 6 Model 3s, 2 Performance high performance all-wheel drive version and 3 long-range all-wheel drive version.

The first batch of Model 3 owners, including Weibo CEO Wang Gaofei, posted a video between Weibo @ on February 27th, posting the feeling of picking up the car, "the car feels too small, a little shabby." This size feels smaller than Bora, about the same as Theo.

Between coming and going: the car feels too small, a little shabby. This size feels smaller than Bora, almost the same as Sail, the car delivery is really fast, a total of 2 minutes, the tow truck driver looked at his ID card and took a picture. Look back and see how to operate in the future, but the size of Model3 feels that it is more dangerous if ES6 comes out.

In the video, Model 3 really looks a bit "small and exquisite" and looks a bit like a "toy car". Under Weibo, Xiaolong Lee, vice president of Huawei mobile phone, joked that "it looks like I haven't seen a real car before delivery, and it's pure online shopping," while Wang Gaofei replied directly: "A little regret."

The size of the Model 3 has long been announced, and the real car has been exposed many times. The Model 3 can be said to be a smaller Model S with a body size of 4694 "1849" 1443mm and a wheelbase of 2875 mm. The length and width of the Model 3 is indeed similar to that of the new Bora, but larger than the A0 class Sail.

For Wang Gaofei's evaluation, Automotive House founder Li Xiang also expressed his own views, he believes that Model 3 is small because the BMW 3 Series, Mercedes-Benz C, Audi A4 are not lengthened, Model 3 looks more accustomed, and to many domestic models have been lengthened, by contrast, naturally feel that Model 3 "smaller".

Li Xiang: America's BMW 3-Series, Mercedes-Benz C, Audi A4 are not extended versions, Model 3 looks more accustomed. Domestic 3 series is also lengthened, 5 series is also lengthened, you will not get used to not lengthening the car, black and blue are visually smaller, white and red are larger. When you buy a four-door sedan of the same class, about 500000 is too expensive. You can buy a 5-series top match. From a performance point of view, it will be cheaper when you buy a BMW M3.

In addition to the first impression of "bad reviews", Wang Gaofeihai complained about the incompatibility between the charging head of Model 3 and Model S. Wang Gaofei had already bought Model S before Model 3, and the two car charging heads were not compatible in design. Tesla must not have taken into account that the same owner would buy two different Tesla cars.

It is a fait accompli that the small charge head of the new car is not compatible with the Model S, and it is the most worrying that there is something wrong with the new car on the first day. Wang Gaofei posted on Weibo that the new car broke down before it was started, and the central control screen showed that the pressure of the left rear tire was "very low" and the sensor was suspected to be broken.

When he came and went, he explained on Weibo that he didn't find any flat air when he got off the car and looked at the tire, so he suspected that the sensor was broken. However, later, the car owner finally found the reason. It turned out that the right rear wheel pin was leaking. As to why the right rear tire pressure alarm was displayed, the car owner guessed that it was the wrong tire or configuration, and then directly crossed and exchanged the two rear wheels, and the problem was solved.

In November last year, Tesla announced the price of the Model 3 in China. In early January this year, Tesla announced that the Model 3 was officially open for selection and booking in the Chinese mainland region, with the long-lasting all-wheel drive version starting at 499000 yuan and the Performance high-performance all-wheel drive version starting at 560000 yuan. The two Chinese standard mileage are 590km and 595km, respectively. After that, the long-lasting rear-wheel drive version, which officially launched in China in early February, will have a mileage of not less than 600km. Tesla provides a 4-year or 80, 000-km vehicle warranty and an 8-year or 192000-km battery warranty.

The construction of Tesla's Shanghai plant started on January 7. the first phase of the project was completed in the second quarter and began to be put into production in the second half of the year. After all, the total annual production capacity reached 500000 vehicles. Tesla Shanghai factory will be the domestic Model 3 two-wheel drive benchmark model, and the second domestic model will be Tesla has not yet released the Model Y.

Just some time ago, the US Consumer report no longer recommended Model 3. The magazine released a report on Tesla based on a survey of thousands of car owners, believing that there were deficiencies in its reliability, and most of these problems came from electronic devices, such as navigation, infotainment, screens, and so on.

Since the listing of ES8, its system problems have been complained about. In fact, Tesla's car system has also been complained by car owners, and some netizens even teased Weibo CEO Wang Gaofei to buy the "authentic Tesla".
