Earlier this month, the carmaker cut the starting price of its
Chinese-made Model 3 sedans by about 8% to 249,900 yuan

Tesla said it delivered 139,300 vehicles in the third quarter,
an all-time record, yet shares fell as some analysts doubted if
Tesla could hit its ambitious year-end target.
Shares of the automaker, which have surged more than five times
this year, were up nearly 1% at $445.25 in premarket trading.
