Chinese-made Tesla Model 3 costs $43
The price of an electric car made in China has been reduced to $43. The reason for the price reduction is the tax incentives from the state that the American automaker received.
Information about the cost reduction was reported by Tesla representatives themselves, so this message can be considered official. The news was published on Weibo social network, the price was quoted in RMB.
On January 7, 2020, a Chinese-made electric car will be launched on world markets. Most likely, the good news was announced specifically on the eve of this event.
Initially, the Tesla Model 3 was estimated at 50 thousand dollars. Two factors led to lower prices. Firstly, tax incentives from the Chinese government. Secondly, the decision to produce some components in China. Thus, the automaker manages to save on transportation and import of imported parts into the country. 
Reducing the cost is good news not only for motorists, but also for the manufacturer. Tesla Model 3 has been competitive in the market before, and now it has a huge advantage over other companies.
The practice of selling Tesla cars made outside the US is not new. Debut models without "American citizenship" have already received employees of the Shanghai factory. January 7 will begin the first global sale of such electric cars.
