Most US technologies have been moving their production out of China. The decision comes in as they are expected to pay a huge amount as tariffs if the product is made in China. President Donald Trump had also demanded that US-based companies opt out of China eventually. At such a point, the fact that Tesla’s Model 3 sedans have been made in China comes out as a surprise to most people. Tesla is planning to sell these automobiles in China and compete with the local brand electric car makers. They have also been aiming at global brands like BMW and Mercedes-Benz.

These Model 3 sedans are sold at the price of $50,000. Tesla had also announced previously that they aim at handing over the vehicles before the lunar New Year. The company thus will be seen speeding up with the selling process from the beginning of 2020. The pictures from the Gigafactory 3 plant have also been doing the rounds across social media platforms.
