Model Y hits the historical low price, and Tesla's domestic sales in November exceed 73,000 units
On December 3, according to media reports, Tesla's Shanghai Gigafactory delivered 79,000 electric vehicles in November 2024, up 15% month-on-month. According to authoritative media statistics, Tesla's domestic sales exceeded 73,000 in November, up 12% year-on-year and up 82% month-on-month, setting a record high for a single month this year. Among them, its domestic sales in the last week of November exceeded 18,600, setting a record for a single week this quarter.Recently, Tesla launched a "limited delivery with a discount on the final payment" policy, and the final payment for Model Y's rear-wheel drive and long-range all-wheel drive models will be reduced by RMB10,000 if the vehicle is taken out before December 31. At the same time, Tesla's 5-year 0% interest financial plan has been extended to December 31. This means that you can start Model Y for as low as RMB2,667 per month, which is the lowest price in history.It is worth noting that in response to industry concerns about cost reduction and supplier relationships, Tesla's vice president of public affairs, Tao Lin, recently confirmed in a post that the company's payment cycle for supply chain companies has been shortened further this year compared to last year, now only needing about 90 days. At the same time, he revealed that 95% or more of the parts produced at the Shanghai Gigafactory come from domestic suppliers, with a domestic content rate even higher than many domestic new energy brands.In addition, the Model Y and Model 3 produced at the Shanghai Gigafactory not only supply the domestic market but also are exported to multiple markets in Asia-Pacific, Europe and other regions. Currently, the annual production capacity of the Shanghai Gigafactory has reached 950,000 vehicles, with a car coming off the production line every 30 seconds or so. This efficiency allows Chinese consumers to buy Tesla at the lowest price in the world, with media reports suggesting that Tesla's price in China can even be lower than other markets by RMB185,000.In addition to China, in Europe, the Americas, Asia and other countries, Tesla's hot sales have also achieved good results. In the European market, Tesla ranked first in the luxury car sales; in the Asian market, the registration of Tesla in South Korea grew rapidly in 2024, accounting for 40% of imported electric vehicles in October, and the Model Y also ranked among the top three best-selling passenger cars in October; in the American market, Tesla's market share in California's electric vehicle market reached 54.5%, and the Model Y, Model 3 and Cybertruck became the top three most popular electric vehicles in the region, with the Cybertruck also becoming the best-selling vehicle in its segment in the United States.
