Tesla, which aims to produce 150,000 Model 3 sedans from its $2
billion Shanghai factory, sold around 30% of the battery
electric vehicles sold in China, Cui Dongshu, CPCA secretary
general, said on an online briefing.
Tesla sold around 3,900 units in February, up from 2,620
vehicles in January, CPCA data showed. CPCA uses a different
counting method than Tesla's deliveries.
Overall passenger car sales in March were down 40.8% from a year
earlier.
