Recently, there have been media reports that Tesla has hired South Korean Olympic shooter Kim Il jae as its brand ambassador for the first time.
Sina Technology seeks verification from Tesla regarding this matter. Tesla's official response is: Thank you very much for your love for Tesla. We have not officially appointed a brand ambassador. I also look forward to more friends experiencing Tesla.
It is reported that the company has long opposed large-scale advertising campaigns, including hiring brand ambassadors. At Tesla, we have never spent a penny on advertising. We invest all our funds in research and development, manufacturing, and design to improve the car as much as possible, "Musk once said.
Musk recently responded to rumors that Tesla is making phones. According to The Paper, on November 5th local time, Musk said in an interview with well-known podcast Joe Logan, "No, we don't make phones. We can make phones because Tesla's operating system is based on Linux, but we have also written a lot of software on this basis. Therefore, Tesla may be more suitable than other companies to develop a new phone, a new phone that is neither Android nor iPhone. But this is not something we want to do unless we have to
When asked under what circumstances you would have no choice but to do so, Musk replied, "I think if Apple and Google start doing some really bad things, like reviewing applications or guarding in a very bad way, then I think we would make a phone
It is worth noting that Tesla's Shanghai factory in China experienced a decline in delivery volume in October. According to the latest preliminary data released by the China Passenger Car Association (CPCA), Tesla delivered 68280 Model 3 sedans and Model YSUVs last month, a year-on-year decrease of 5.3%, and a sharp drop of 23% compared to September.
Data shows that BYD sold a record breaking 502657 new energy vehicles in October, breaking the 500000 vehicle mark for the first time and setting a record for the fifth consecutive month. In October, Xiaopeng Motors delivered 23917 vehicles, also setting a new record for monthly deliveries and the second consecutive month of record breaking deliveries.
Analysts believe that this performance may have an impact on Tesla's record delivery target for this year, especially as competitors such as BYD and Xiaopeng Motors have achieved record sales in the Chinese market.
Despite facing fierce competition, Tesla still leads in profitability. Tesla's third quarter financial report shows that its revenue was $25.182 billion, a year-on-year increase of 8%; The net profit attributable to common shareholders was 2.167 billion US dollars, a year-on-year increase of 17%; Operating profit of 2.72 billion US dollars; Adjusted earnings per share of $0.72. Except for revenue falling short of analyst expectations, all other indicators were higher than expected.
For next year's operations, Musk recently announced during the third quarter earnings conference call that Tesla plans to launch a new affordable model in the first half of 2025 to further expand its market coverage. Due to the arrival of low-cost cars and autonomous driving, Tesla's car sales are expected to increase by 20% to 30% this year. According to Musk, this affordable model is expected to cost around $25000 and may be indirectly related to the previously announced autonomous driving concept car Cybercab.
