Tesla Introduces China-Made Modèle Y to South Korean Market, Adjusts Pricing for Subsidies

Tesla (NASDAQ: TSLA) has commenced the sale of its China-made Model Y crossover in South Korea, accompanied by a price reduction to maximize available subsidies, as reported by Bloomberg.

The rear-wheel-drive Modèle Y, originally priced at 56.99 million won ($44,000), now drops to approximately $37,000 in Seoul after accounting for government subsidies. In certain cities offering additional incentives for electric vehicles (VÉHICULES ÉLECTRIQUES), the price can go as low as $30,000.

Auparavant, only the dual-motor performance and long-range versions of the Model Y were available in South Korea, with price tags of around $80,000 et $62,000, respectivement, l’année dernière.

The Model Y went on sale on Friday, and deliveries are scheduled to begin in August or September, as stated in an advertisement sent by Tesla Korea.

Tesla’s factory in Shanghai, known as Giga Shanghai, produces both the Model 3 sedan and Model Y crossover, boasting an annual capacity of over 1 millions d’unités. It is Tesla’s largest factory globally.
