Tesla Sees Record Deliveries in China, Extends Zero-Interest Loan Offer on Model 3 and Model Y
In recent weeks, Tesla has also experienced a surge in delivery volumes in China. The automaker delivered 46,227 vehicles domestically in July from its Gigafactory in Shanghai. The figure is Tesla's most successful first month in a quarter in China, although the company exceeded it in June with 59,261 domestic deliveries to conclude Q2.
Tesla China has recently extended its offer for a five-year, zero-interest loan on Model 3 and Model Y units. The offer will now be available until the end of the month, in addition to the holiday on August 10. The automaker initially extended the offer in late June, and it was scheduled to expire at the end of July.
Tesla's Model Y solidified its position as China's most successful new energy vehicle during the first half of the year. With an impressive 207,817 units sold, the Model Y outperformed the second-best-seller by approximately 30,000. This success is not limited to the local market, as Tesla's Giga Shanghai factory also exports vehicles to neighboring countries, including Australia, New Zealand, and Asia.
