Tesla vehicles are selling like hotcakes in China, and one of the company's latest moves is expected to further boost that trend.
Tesla's China website today (Nov.1) launched a new financial product that allows consumers to purchase vehicles through a zero down payment finance lease model.
If a consumer plans to purchase a Model Y Standard Range priced at RMB 276,000 ($43,100), the down payment under the program is zero and the monthly payment is RMB 5,520 when paid back in five-year installments, according to Tesla.
