The market success of the electric vehicle Tesla Model 3 can be evaluated only in the number of pre-orders, since the July quota of 30 copies can not be considered a serious indicator. But even at this stage of the life cycle, this product does not give rest to competitors, and one of the largest automakers in the face of Volkswagen Group is ready to challenge the new creation of Ilona Mask. According to the statements of Volkswagen representatives, by 2020 this carmaker promises to
bring to the market an electric car, which will be seven to eight thousand dollars cheaper than the Tesla Model 3.
In the basic version of Tesla Model 3 in the US is $ 35 000, so the competitor of the brand Volkswagen will fit into the range of $ 27-28 thousand. Another thing is that the German manufacturer will probably concentrate its efforts on the market of Europe and China, and Tesla will not be able to significantly push the US market, even taking into account the initiative to build a network of charging stations in this country.
Volkswagen has previously promised to outperform Tesla Model 3 power reserve with this relatively affordable electric vehicle, but inquisitive minds from the Electrek website have revealed that such statements are based on differences in the measurement methodology and, after bringing the autonomy indicators of these electric vehicles to a "common denominator" Should be equalized at around 400 km.
The presence of competition, of course, can only be welcomed. Especially as the manufacturers of electric vehicles themselves recognize that an increase in the output of traction batteries will have a positive impact on their affordability. Related Products :
