This company move is significant, as it shows Tesla’s focus on [research and development](https://www.mindstick.com/forum/158105/what-is-the-current-state-of-research-and-development-in-nanotechnology) while pointing to a new market for [electric vehicles](https://yourviews.mindstick.com/story/3601/xiaomi-unveiled-first-electric-vehicles) in China.

## Enhanced Aerodynamics and Features

The new Model Y is more aerodynamically refined than its predecessor, or at the very least, is packaged that way. This improvement does not only address drag but also the aircraft’s range and its performance in general. It has also proved the carmaker’s commitment to loading the new car with innovative features such as the enhanced infotainment system and new connectivity options. All these additions tally with the increasing popularity of high-[tech](https://www.mindstick.com/services/technologies) cars in [China](https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&source=web&rct=j&opi=89978449&url=https://www.mindstick.com/news/3690/still-us-wants-china-s-chip-industry-included-in-tech-discuss-the-startup-challenges&ved=2ahUKEwiygbPZpuuKAxUrh1YBHePAN84QFnoECB0QAQ&usg=AOvVaw35lHD7porxk3oRuOGpkJ3t).

## Focus on Affordability and Range

In the Model Y, Tesla has even further tried to bring down its price tag into an acceptable but still affordable target market range. In addition to the extension of its driving range of over 500 km per charge, this decision demonstrates that Tesla is really responding to the demands of Chinese motorists. This focus on making electric automobiles affordable and efficient places Tesla in a good standing against homegrown competitors.

## Local Production for Strategic Advantage

Enhancing local production is a [strategic approach](https://yourviews.mindstick.com/view/88110/creating-rankable-content-a-strategic-approach-to-seo-driven-digital-marketing) that Tesla expects will lower its expense and shorten delivery time. The above strategy can enable the company to achieve customer value enhancements more effectively and more fulfilling the ever demanding market. Further, making Model Y locally would deepen Tesla’s positioning in China, so that the car design meets the Chinese market tendency.
