Tesla China-made car sales climb back to record
    2021-07-21  08:53    Shenzhen Daily

TESLA Inc. saw registrations of its Chinese-made cars climb again last month as promotions toward the quarter-end helped offset a string of negative press around customer complaints and quality concerns.

Registrations of Model 3 sedans and Model Y sports utility vehicles (SUVs) made at Tesla’s Shanghai factory totaled 28,508 units in June, a 29 percent increase from May and more than double the figure in April, data from China Automotive Information Net show. Model 3 registrations rebounded to 16,995, while Model Y’s hit 11,513, a 10 percent drop from May.

The strong showing for Model 3 sedans can partly be attributed to Tesla promotions that included preferential loans and discounts for full upfront payments, local media reported. Tesla started delivering Model 3s from its Shanghai factory to the public in early 2020, with Model Y production coming later.

Tesla has faced challenges in China in recent months, including a major recall for a software fix and some negative publicity after a protester climbed on one of its vehicles at the Shanghai Auto Show in April and said a brake failure in a Model 3 had caused a crash, nearly killing four members of her family.
