Tesla is a great car company, but it's not as “insurmountable” as it seems as Nio chases after it, Nio founder William Li Bin said in a September 8 video program.

Information on Tesla's China website indicates that the company has quietly launched a battery recycling service in China.

Construction of the main body of Tesla's Shanghai Gigafactory Phase II began in February this year, and both the main structure and the outer envelope have been completed, according to shobserver.com.

Tesla did not reject the Wuhan customer who participated in the Pinduoduo group buy, nor did it blacklist the customer, but only to protect the customer's rights and persuade him to place an order again on the official website, a Tesla employee in China said today.

Tesla's Shanghai Gigafactory has released the environmental assessment report for the initial project of its new model, which means that the pre-production preparations for the China-made Model Y will begin soon.

Tesla is hiring technicians and operators for its new project and new model at its Shanghai Gigafactory, with a cumulative demand of nearly 1,000 people.

A Tesla owner in China recently said that his Tesla mobile app can see all the information of other vehicles far away in Europe and he can remote control them.

The recent launch of Nio's BaaS (Battery as a Service) battery rental service in China has raised a lot of eyebrows. In an article published on Monday, Tesla China made a veiled dig at the model as being inferior to its unibody model.

The Tesla China website has released the China-made Model Y configurator, which users can choose from with 2 models, the long-range all-wheel drive version and the Performance version, with a pre-order price of RMB 488,000 (about $70,000) - RMB 535,000.

The China-made Model Y will begin rolling off the production line at the Shanghai Gigafactory in early 2021, cls.cn cited an unnamed Tesla executive as saying on August 20.
