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.
电动汽车巨头特斯拉公司(NASDAQ:TSLA)将其最便宜的车型——Model 3轿车在德国的售价提高了1500欧元(约1625美元)，可能是因为欧洲联盟对中国制造并销售汽车征收了进口关税的原因。
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.
新价格：特斯拉网站显示，德国的Model 3基础版现在的起价为42,490欧元（约46,000美元）。后轮驱动的Model 3之前的价格为40,990欧元（约44,400美元），比如今高出1,500欧元。
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.)
更高端的长续航全轮驱动版本现在的起价为51,490欧元，而性能版则从58,490欧元（约63,400美元）起步。
The Tesla Model 3s sold in the EU are manufactured at Tesla's gigafactory in Shanghai.
特斯拉在中国的超级工厂上生产的Model 3s在欧盟销售。
Why It Matters: The price hike comes on the heels of a tariff hike deployed on EVs made in China.
为什么重要：价格上涨是在中国制造的电动汽车关税上调之后出现的。
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.
欧盟委员会上周对来自中国的电动汽车进口额外征收高达37.6％的关税，担心那些享受国家补贴的便宜电动汽车会将国内参与者挤出市场。
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.
新的关税是由委员会去年启动的反补贴调查的最长期限为四个月的暂定性质。在此期间，委员会将决定具有五年通常适用的确定性税的确定性关税。
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.
特斯拉与欧盟的调查展开合作，并被给予一个20.8％的加权平均关税，目前为止。委员会表示该公司已经提出要求，并可能在确定阶段获得一个个别计算的关税。
Tesla had warned of a price hike last month.
特斯拉上个月曾警告会出现价格上涨。
"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.
"由于预期的进口关税，Model 3的价格可能会在2024年7月1日后上涨。" 特斯拉德国网站上的一条消息写道。但是，该消息没有具体说明价格会上涨多少。
