[TechWeb] Market rumors that Tesla’s Cybertruck is expected to be officially introduced into China caused heated discussions.
However, Tesla’s China recently clarified to the interface news that Cybertruck currently has no sales plans to enter the China market.
The report pointed out that the introduction of Cybertruck is subject to strict restrictions on pickup trucks in the China market and body safety regulations.
Cybertruck’s unique shape design requires a lot of adjustments to meet domestic regulations, which not only requires high costs, but also has unclear market sales prospects.
Cui Dongshu, secretary-general of the Passenger Federation Branch, once pointed out that the design of Cybertruck has not yet complied with domestic regulations and standards, and its special steel plate material and sharp design may pose a threat to pedestrian safety.
According to the national standard “Technical Conditions for Safety of Motor Vehicle Operation” that was implemented in 2018, there should be no sharp protrusions that may cause injury on any parts inside and outside the vehicle that may be touched.
, In addition, most cities in China have implemented restriction policies on pickup trucks.
The truck attributes of the pickup trucks and the 15-year mandatory scrapping rule will have a direct impact on the residual value of the vehicles.
At the same time, annual annual inspections and the inability to enjoy the free high-speed policy on holidays also affect the attractiveness of pickup trucks.
At the same time, at the 2024 Shenzhen Global Investment Conference, Jiang Dan, head of Tesla’s External Affairs Region, said that although Cybertruck currently has no plans to sell in China, the exhibition of this car at the Investment Conference aims to showcase Tesla’s leading achievements in technological innovation and product design.
She emphasized that Cybertruck shares safety and technology similarities with Tesla’s existing models and is a bold attempt by the company into future travel methods.
Through the exhibition, Tesla hopes to let more people feel the company’s continued pursuit of technological innovation.
