Tesla’s China sales crash 66% to lowest level in over four years
Tesla's China retail sales fell 66% to 8,817 units in October, the lowest since July 2022, as Giga Shanghai shipped 87% of its output overseas.
AI Summary
Tesla delivered 8,817 vehicles from its Giga Shanghai plant to Chinese customers in October, a 66% drop from the same month a year earlier. The figure marks the company’s lowest monthly sales in China since July 2022. In July 2022, the Shanghai factory was partially shut down for line upgrades, but in October it operated normally. Despite the normal operation, the plant shipped 87% of its production overseas, leaving a large portion of vehicles for export. The sharp decline reflects a significant contraction in domestic demand for Tesla vehicles.
