According to the China Passenger Car Association (CPAC), Model Y sales in China increased by 26% in Q1 2023.
The Shanghai plant makes Model 3s as well.
To compete local rival BYD, Tesla cut Chinese prices at the beginning of 2023.
Prices have since crept up slowly with a standard Model Y costing CNY263,900 (US$37,127) according to the Tesla China website, up from CNY259,900 ($36,564).
