Tesla continues to ramp up production and delivery. Hundreds of Tesla Model 3 vehicles have arrived at the port of Hong Kong to meet the needs of the growing market.

In the video Tesmanian received from a reader, we can see about 300 Model 3s in the port. However, our reader was unable to confirm whether it was all the vehicles that had arrived or whether the unloading of the ship was still ongoing. But, even considering that Hong Kong already received around 300 Model 3s at the beginning of the month, it can be assumed that Q4 2020 will be a record for Tesla.

 

 



Interest in the Tesla brand continues to grow in several countries in Southeast Asia. iPrice--an aggregator e-commerce platform--noted that Tesla was the top-searched car brand in two countries, namely Singapore and Hong Kong. Both countries have been steadily transitioning to green energy vehicles and have already proposed a phase-out date for ICE cars.

In Hong Kong, the government has already introduced incentives to encourage the transition from ICE cars to all-electric vehicles. Hong Kong is offering first registration tax (FRT) concessions up to HK $97,500. Residents can get additional FRT concessions worth up to HK $250,000 if they agree to “scrap and de-register an eligible old private car,” stated the Environmental Protection Department of Hong Kong. This policy is already in effect.

Tesla electric cars have always been popular in Hong Kong, but due to their high prices, they were not accessible many people. However, this year Tesla brought some good news for Hong Kong buyers. Prices for new Tesla Model S, Model X, and Model 3 vehicles have been cut. As a result, demand for Model 3 continues to grow. Hundreds of Tesla Model 3s just arrived in Hong Kong.
