Recently, Tesla has been hit by many friends. The starting price of 176,800 yuan on the evening of March 13th is about 90,000 yuan cheaper than the new version of Tesla Model Y.. Therefore, it seems that the Tesla China team will live to develop a brand-new Model Y version to cope with the stronger impact of the future market.

First of all, we can see Tucki G6, the competitor of Tesla Model Y, which is currently equipped with 800V architecture after being redesigned and listed, and it is also equipped with smart driving and 5C batteries. Under such a big upgrade, the price dropped to 176,800, which really shocked consumers.

According to informed sources, this model, which is more people-friendly, was developed by the R&D team of China, and its core strategy is to achieve cost control by streamlining configuration while retaining the main functions of the current Model Y battery, power and chassis. However, many consumers said that the current version of Model Y is "simple". Where can Tesla start?

During the investor day in 2024, Lars Moravy, the chief engineer of Tesla, also made it clear that the company hopes to manufacture the "next generation" car at half the cost of the current or Model Y. So with the acceleration of involution, is Tesla willing to "test the water" in the best-selling China market? If Tesla reduces the current cost by half to produce cars, it means that the price of new products will drop to 150,000 yuan or even lower, so it may really be more cost-effective than Tucki G6.
