recently,Some netizens broke the news that Ningde Times forced manager-level employees to purchase Tesla Model 3, and released a few photos, saying that the current Ningde Times Center Technology Building is full of Teslas.As the news aroused heated discussion on the Internet, Ningde Times responded to the media today:There is no compulsory, and most of the electric models supplied by the company are offered with discounts, not only Tesla.
However, on a domestic platform, some employees claiming to be Ningde Times answered anonymously, giving more inside information. It said that he is an employee of the Ningde era, and the vehicles purchased by these mandatory employees are “Tesla sold to the Ningde era, and the Ningde era will resell it to employees, and requires that the license plate and reselling are not allowed within one year.”
The netizen also said that since March, CATL only launched preferential activities for employees to buy Tesla, and did not force employees to buy.At the same time, the price of this batch of Model 3 is also very competitive, and the online price information is 199,000 yuan.Compared with the current starting price of 250,000 yuan in the market, it is quite attractive. At that time, many employees wanted to buy.
However, the employees of CATL who are responsible for supplying Tesla are very clear.The reason why these cars were sold to the Ningde era is because of the battery problems in this batch.Therefore, Tesla returned to the Ningde era, and the Ningde era was not qualified to sell cars to the outside world and could only adopt the method of internal digestion.
After the news was revealed, even if there was a price concession, employees who wanted to buy also retreated. There are still some “Tesla stock cars” in the Ningde era that have not been cleared.
In order to clear the inventory as soon as possible, CATL has introduced a new “promotion” method.First: Forcing managers at the level of employees to purchase Tesla Model 3 in the hands of the company; Second: For employees who have parking spaces in the underground garage, regardless of whether they are at the manager level, if they do not purchase the Model 3 in the hands of the company, they need to give up the parking spaces. come out.
Under this “two-pronged” policy, the downstairs of the Ningde era was almost entirely Tesla’s “spectacle.”
However, it is worth noting that the employee broke the news that there was a problem with this batch of Model 3 batteries, but did not disclose where the problem was. If it’s just a battery life issue, in the face of such a price discount, it can still be accepted. But if it comes to safety,Then this car is a threat to employees and other second-hand car owners who take over.
Therefore, CATL should give a more detailed explanation for this batch of promotional Tesla Model 3.
