But the company also said that in a year of global automobile industry recession, its annual electric vehicle delivery did not meet the expected target. < / P > < p > according to refrinitiv data, the company's electric vehicle delivery in 2020 will reach 49955, higher than the 481261 expected by Wall Street analysts, but lower than that of CEO Elon_ blank" href=" https://news.163.com/news/search?keyword=%E9%A9%AC%E6%96%AF%E5%85%8B "> the target number set by Elon Musk is 450 vehicles lower. < / P > < p > musk tweeted that he was "proud that the Tesla team has achieved this significant milestone." "In the early days of Tesla, I thought we (at best) had a 10% chance of surviving," he said < / P > < p > on social media twitter, many fans of musk congratulated Tesla's electric vehicle business on such a good performance, saying that 2020 is a brilliant year for the electric vehicle manufacturer, which has withstood the test of sales decline and performance loss in the global automobile industry, and overcome the challenge of global supply chain disruption. < / P > < p > in the past year, Tesla's share price has increased by more than 700%. So far, the company has been profitable for five consecutive quarters. In December last year, Tesla's shares were included in the S & P 500 index and became a component of the index. < / P > < p > some investors have criticized Tesla's previous claim that it will achieve its 2020 target for electric vehicle delivery. Tesla said in early 2020 that its electric vehicle delivery will "easily exceed 500000 vehicles" in 2020. Despite the new coronavirus epidemic, the annual electric vehicle delivery target remains unchanged. Zachary kirkhorn, Tesla's chief financial officer, said in October 2020 that Tesla would meet its original 2020 target. < / P > < p > as traditional automobile manufacturers increase investment in electric vehicle business and the competition in domestic automobile market in the United States intensifies, Tesla will now place its hope on new markets such as Europe and Asia. < / P > < p > the increase in Tesla's electric vehicle delivery is supported by the expansion of its Shanghai Electric Vehicle super factory, which is the company's only electric vehicle production plant outside California so far. Tesla said its Shanghai plant has started production of model y and is expected to deliver it soon. < / P > < p > Tesla is headquartered in Palo Alto, California, USA. The company said that in the fourth quarter of 2020, it delivered 1805700 electric vehicles, which set the highest quarterly delivery record of the company and exceeded the expectation of 16362800 electric vehicles.

The reporter of China first finance and economics verified this to all parties. < / P > < p > temanian, a foreign we media that focuses on Tesla's news reports, quoted the source's estimate that within 10 hours after the announcement of Tesla's price, the order volume will exceed 100000. The media also said that at present, about 300 Chinese made model y have been produced from Tesla's Shanghai Super factory, and these 300 new electric vehicles are all used for exhibition purposes. < / P > < p > in view of the above forecast order volume, the reporter of first finance asked Tesla insiders for confirmation, and the other party responded: "the booking and test drive of model y are very popular, but the data of 100000 orders in 10 hours is exaggerated." He also said that model y exhibition cars will be sent to Tesla stores across the country in recent days. "There will be a lot of people in the store these two days. Consumers can go to the store at the wrong peak." These people told the first financial reporter. < / P > < p > after making an appointment for a test drive, the reporter of first finance and economics received a phone call from Tesla store at about 7:00 p.m. on January 1. A salesperson told the reporter that as of that day, no model y exhibition cars had arrived in all the exhibition halls in Shanghai, and only model 3 could test drive. < / P > < p > on the day of model Y's launch, there were online revelations that Tesla's directCompetitor Weilai suffered massive refund. Weilai's SUV models ec6 and ES6, with prices starting from 368000 yuan and 358000 yuan respectively, are the direct competitive products of model y. < / P > < p > in response to this, Weilai responded to the reporter of China first finance and Economics: "the news that the official website system encountered large-scale chargeback is not true, and we have already launched complaints against the relevant platforms." < p > < p > < b > [Tesla China executives: the goal of localization rate has been basically achieved, and there is little room for future price reduction] < / b > < / P > < p > Author: Qian Tongxin < / P > < p > Tao Lin, vice president of Tesla, made a response to the price, service, charging and other related issues of Tesla electric vehicles in China in an exclusive interview with China business news. "Tesla's target of localization rate has been basically achieved, and there is little possibility of further price reduction in the future," Tao told China business Tao Lin also said that the price of electric vehicles is related to the cost, which is affected by the cost of raw materials and the cost of electric vehicle parts. "Or if the price of Tesla's electric car parts doesn't rise in the future, it's possible." < / P > < p > since Tesla's domestic model 3 electric vehicle came into the market, the price has been lowered for many times, which has aroused the dissatisfaction of some old car owners. In the year from October 2019 to October 2020, the price of domestic model 3 has been adjusted five times. Taking the upgraded model with standard range rear drive as an example, its price has been reduced from 355800 yuan to 249900 yuan, with a price reduction rate of nearly 100000 yuan. < / P > < p > Tesla CEO musk is very strict in cost control. In the quarter ending September 30, 2020, Tesla's gross profit margin was 23.5%, and the agency forecasts that Tesla's global gross profit margin will be between 17% and 22% in 2020. < / P > < p > according to the market data, according to the production process of Tesla Shanghai Super factory at the present stage, the cost price of domestic model 3 may be less than 200000 yuan, that is to say, the gross profit rate of domestic model 3 will reach about 30%, which is far higher than that of American electric vehicles, and there is still room for price reduction in the future. < / P > < p > recently, Panasonic is proposed to start trial production of new cheaper Tesla batteries as early as 2021, which may also trigger a new round of price reduction of Tesla. The expectation of price reduction will lead some consumers to hold a wait-and-see attitude, which may affect car sales. < / P > < p > with the increase of Tesla's sales in China, the pressure of after-sales service also began to increase. In the third quarter of 2020, Tesla sold 34000 vehicles in China, with an average monthly sales of more than 10000 vehicles, accounting for a quarter of its global sales. According to the sales data released by the Federation of passengers, as of November 2020, the sales volume of model 3 was 21604, still increasing by 77% on a month on month basis. As of November, model 3 had sold 111645 units in China. "The number of after-sales service centers in China is expected to double to 90 by the end of next year," Xue told reporters According to Xue Juncheng, charging service is an important service of Tesla. At present, with the increase of Tesla vehicles on the road, users are also facing problems such as insufficient charging facilities in public areas. To this end, Tesla has built its own charging piles in Shanghai, with an output of 10000 next year, all of which are V3 super charging piles, and will increase the deployment of charging piles in public areas such as garages and expressways. < / P > < p > the quality of Tesla electric vehicles produced in the United States is often criticized by the media. According to the consumer report, the reliability of the new model y electric vehicle, which has been launched in the United States, has been questioned by car owners, including paint and decoration problems, seat dents and loose seat belts. On December 1, the consumer report of the United States released the latest automobile reliability survey in 2020. Four Tesla passenger cars ranked at the bottom of the list and were not recommended. < / P > < p > < / P > < p > but it does not seem to affect the global sales and stock price performance of Tesla electric vehicles. In the third quarter of this year, Tesla's global sales of electric vehicles reached 145000, a step closer to its goal of 500000. < / P > < p > < b > [in 2020, Tesla's share price rose by 689%, and Musk's net assets increased by $129 billion] < / b > < / P > < p > in the past 2020, no one in the world is a bigger winner than Elon Musk, CEO of Tesla and SpaceX. < / P > < p > Figure 1: Elon Musk, CEO of Tesla and SpaceX < / P > < p > musk was already a billionaire as early as 2020, with a net asset of about $30 billion. By the end of 2020, his net worth has increased nearly fivefold. The net worth of Tesla's chief executive increased by $129 billion, or 469.9%, according to the index. < / P > < p > because stock prices fluctuate frequently, many billionaires sometimes make or lose billions of dollars in a short time. For musk, this situation is particularly prominent. The expansion and contraction of his net assets are almost synchronized with the share price of Tesla, and what he gets from Tesla is the minimum wage allowed by law. < / P > < p > Tesla stock is the biggest source of Musk's net asset surge in 2020, and its share price has soared to a new high this year. Tesla is already the world's largest car maker by market value, with a recent close to $645 billion. Since January 1, 2020, Tesla's share price has risen by 689%, which is a huge positive news for musk, as he owns 18% of the shares, easily making him the largest shareholder of Tesla. < / P > < p > but musk only gets a meager salary, at least on paper, which is, in Musk's own words, "lack of cash.". Like many other wealthy corporate executives, he still relies on mortgages and credit for his daily life. "Some people think I have a lot of cash, but it's not," Musk told leading investor Cathie wood on a podcast last year < / P > < p > however, despite the low pay, musk remained the highest paid executive in the world last year, thanks to a very complex compensation package. When Tesla achieves increasingly difficult stock, income and earnings performance indicators, the program will grant him 12 stock options. < / P > < p > Tesla did not respond to requests for comment on Musk's compensation. But regulatory filings show that shareholders overwhelmingly approved the stock option awards granted to musk in 2018. As of last August, musk had unlocked two of them. < / P > < p > Figure 2: growth of Musk's net assets in 2020. That makes his shares in the two companies a little below par, a factor that Forbes magazine and the Bloomberg billionaire index have taken into account. < / P > < p > as of December 15, Musk's wealth was estimated to be about $158 billion, of which about $110 billion (about 70% of the total wealth) came from Tesla shares and options, and another $18.7 billion came from SpaceX's equity. The last $7 billion, calculated by Bloomberg, consists of cash, homes, cars and other assets. < / P > < p > in May 2020, on the occasion of the outbreak of pneumonia in the new museum, which was a headache for Tesla's California and Shanghai factories, musk said that he planned to sell "almost all of his physical property", including several houses he owned at that time. By the end of the year, musk had fulfilled his earlier threats and moved his family and his charity from California to Texas. "It's clear that Tesla and SpaceX have a large business in California," Musk said at a meeting in early December. In fact, it's worth noting that Tesla is the last car company still making cars in California, and SpaceX is the last aerospace company still making major cars in California. California used to have more than a dozen car factories and was once the center of aerospace manufacturing. My company is the last two. " < / P > < p > Figure 3: details of Musk's net assets composition < / P > < p > musk continued: "for myself, I have moved to Texas. We have a starship development project in South Texas, and I'm here right now. And then, we're building giant factories outside Austin In addition to conflicts with local health regulators, the move could save musk a lot of income tax. < / P > < p > the exact location of Musk's Texas residence is unclear. When he moves there, he will join more and more former Californians and Silicon Valley expatriates, a trend that will only be exacerbated by the epidemic's work from home. < / P > < p > however, it is almost certain that the growth of Tesla and SpaceX will continue. Analysts said the automaker is expected to meet its target of selling 500000 vehicles by 2020 as demand from China and the United States increases, which helps to stimulate the continued trend. Meanwhile, sources said last December that SpaceX was discussing a new round of financing that could raise its valuation to $92 billion. < / P > < p > musk has also considered merging his various businesses, from neuralink, a brain engineering company, to boring company, a tunnel construction company, under the same parent company. < / P > < p > < / P > < p > as for the change of Tesla's share price in 2021, analysts have different opinions. JPMorgan analyst Ryan Brinkman and others said Tesla's share price could fall sharply. Bulls, including Dan ives, an analyst at Wade Bush securities, believe that Tesla shares have more room to rise.
