Chinese EV stocks are down on Friday after Tesla (NASDAQ:TSLA) introduced new prices for its electric vehicles (EVs) sold in the country.
The big news here is Tesla cutting the price of its Model Y and Model 3 vehicles in China. This comes after deliveries in the country saw a slump in what was a rough year for the EV market due to economic concerns, such as inflation and a recession.
These price cuts now have Tesla offering its Model Y for about $37,000 and the Model 3 for roughly $32,700. Both of these price tags are immensely cheaper than the starting prices of their U.S. counterparts.
Tesla is a leader in the EV space and if it’s running into trouble, that’s not a good sign for competitors. These latest price cuts will make it harder for rivals in the space to compete without lowering the price of their own EV offerings.
