Tesla North had heard rumors on Chinese social media that speculated a price increase was incoming and it happened last night.
The latest adjustment sees the Model 3 RWD price increasing by ¥1,500, now starting at ¥261,400, and the Model Y RWD going up by ¥2,500, with a new starting price of ¥266,400.
This follows a previous price increase for the Model 3 and Model Y Long Range versions in China, which occurred on November 8. The trend of escalating prices began with the introduction of the Model 3 ‘Highland’ on September 1st.
Tesla’s Giga Shanghai factory is responsible for mass-producing the Model 3 and Model Y. The new Model 3 ‘Highland’ comes with a refreshed design while the Model Y includes some minor upgrades. Hopefully, these new cars and updates will soon make their way to North America, instead of just being in Asia and Europe and the Middle East.
