The overall numbers are great news for Tesla China as the company completed the production lines update in quarter three.
It will be interesting to see if Tesla China can continue to ramp up production in quarter four.
As per estimates, Tesla China is aiming for as many as 266,500 cars produced in quarter four
The push to produce is also matched by an aggressive advertising and incentive campaign by Tesla China.
The company is pushing several purchase benefits on Weibo, including:
- 0 per cent down payment on leases
- Preferential loan rates and;
- Insurance subsidies
The China Passenger Car Association breakdown did not include how many of each model were sold.
