As we all know, among many new energy vehicle brands today, Tesla's popularity in China is undoubtedly the highest, and the two models Model 3 and Model Y have sold very good results last year, because after the realization of localization, Tesla does have certain advantages in terms of price, and it is not inferior to BBA in face, and it will also give people a more avant-garde feeling.
In addition to Tesla, many domestic brands are also working hard in the new energy market, such as BYD, Ideal, Xiaopeng, Weilai, all have their own popular products, but some time ago, when buying a car, one of my friends did not choose Tesla, BYD, nor chose "rational, small, Wei", but bought a Lantu FREE, let's take a look!
