The units of Tesla Model 3 destined for Europe were parked in a massive lot at the Shanghai port. The colors are surprising.
Thousands of Tesla Model 3. Rows stretching as far as the eye can see, waiting to be swallowed within the guts of gigantic ships. Destination: Europe. The scene takes place at the Shanghai port, very close to the Tesla factory that produces the European versions of the Model 3.
This ecological absurdity is part of why France sought to intervene, for example by excluding the Sino-American sedan from the 2024 ecological bonus.
But the interest of this video is elsewhere. It provides information on the color mix chosen by buyers. At first glance, one might think black dominates, but a closer look reveals otherwise. Dark blue sometimes blends into the crowd.
Nevertheless, one thing is clear: white, which is offered as a standard color in Europe, accounts for 50%. In China, white is charged at 8,000 yuan, or about 1,000 euros. Go figure…
Black, included as standard in China, is charged at 1,300 euros in Europe. Next come the new Stealth gray (2,000 euros), Outremer blue (1,300 euros), and finally Ultra red (2,000 euros).
All of this reflects a certain lack of boldness and foresight regarding the residual value once the car is resold second-hand. Pity.
