Tesla Hikes Model 3 Prices In Germany After Increase In Tariffs On China-Made EVs
EV giant Tesla Inc (NASDAQ:TSLA) has raised the price of its cheapest offering – the Model 3 sedan – in Germany by €1,500 (about $1,625), possibly owing to an increase in import tariffs levied on cars made in China and sold in the European Union.
電動汽車巨頭特斯拉公司(NASDAQ:TSLA)將其最便宜的車型——Model 3轎車在德國的售價提高了1500歐元(約1625美元)，可能是因爲歐洲聯盟對中國製造並銷售汽車徵收了進口關稅的原因。
New Prices: The base version of the Model 3 now starts at €42,490 (about $46,000) in Germany, as per Tesla's website. The rear-wheel drive Model 3 was previously priced at €40,990 (about $44,400), or €1,500 less than today.
新價格：特斯拉網站顯示，德國的Model 3基礎版現在的起價爲42,490歐元（約46,000美元）。後輪驅動的Model 3之前的價格爲40,990歐元（約44,400美元），比如今高出1,500歐元。
The more premium long-range all-wheel drive version now starts at 51,490 euros while the Performance variant starts at €58,490 (about $63,400.)
更高端的長續航全輪驅動版本現在的起價爲51,490歐元，而性能版則從58,490歐元（約63,400美元）起步。
The Tesla Model 3s sold in the EU are manufactured at Tesla's gigafactory in Shanghai.
特斯拉在中國的超級工廠上生產的Model 3s在歐盟銷售。
Why It Matters: The price hike comes on the heels of a tariff hike deployed on EVs made in China.
爲什麼重要：價格上漲是在中國製造的電動汽車關稅上調之後出現的。
The European Commission last week imposed additional tariffs of up to 37.6% on EV imports from China over concerns that cheaper EVs from the country, which benefit from state subsidies, will push domestic players out of the market.
歐盟委員會上週對來自中國的電動汽車進口額外徵收高達37.6％的關稅，擔心那些享受國家補貼的便宜電動汽車會將國內參與者擠出市場。
The new tariffs are on a provisional basis for a maximum duration of four months until after the completion of the anti-subsidy investigation commenced by the commission last year. Within the period, the commission will decide on definitive duties that will typically apply for five years, the commission said.
新的關稅是由委員會去年啓動的反補貼調查的最長期限爲四個月的暫定性質。在此期間，委員會將決定具有五年通常適用的確定性稅的確定性關稅。
Tesla cooperated with the EU investigation and has been given a 20.8% weighted average duty, for now. The commission said the company has made a request and may receive an individually calculated duty rate at the definitive stage.
特斯拉與歐盟的調查展開合作，並被給予一個20.8％的加權平均關稅，目前爲止。委員會表示該公司已經提出要求，並可能在確定階段獲得一個個別計算的關稅。
Tesla had warned of a price hike last month.
特斯拉上個月曾警告會出現價格上漲。
"Model 3 price is likely to increase from 1 July 2024 due to expected import duties," a message on Tesla's German website read. The message, however, did not specify how much the prices would be increased.
"由於預期的進口關稅，Model 3的價格可能會在2024年7月1日後上漲。" 特斯拉德國網站上的一條消息寫道。但是，該消息沒有具體說明價格會上漲多少。
