A Tesla delivery center in Beijing, China, recently experienced its highest delivery volume in a day, with footage from the site showing numerous vehicles and customers. The Crab Island Beijing delivery center had its largest delivery volume on a Sunday, with multiple Tesla vehicles in one room and customers waiting to pick up their cars. While the exact number of deliveries on that day was not specified, this news follows a recent increase in sales in the Chinese market. Tesla had 13,800 new registrations in China during the week of May 13 to 19, up 41% from the previous week.
From January to April, Tesla China sold approximately 163,841 vehicles domestically and continues to export vehicles from its Gigafactory Shanghai to other countries. The company also launched free Supercharging perks for customers who order vehicles by June 20 and offered zero interest or zero down payments on Model 3 and Y orders by June 30. Tesla is preparing to launch its Full Self-Driving (FSD) in China after receiving tentative approval last month. The company is also discussing a partnership with Baidu to help develop the system for the Chinese market.
In related news, Tesla China is reportedly reducing Model Y production by about 20% between March and June, according to a recent report from Reuters.
