Tesla is compatible with national standard charging, but sales are still hopeless

Compatibility with Chinese standards is a necessary step for Tesla's localization, but the stimulation of sales is far less direct than obtaining subsidies. In other words, the stagnation of Tesla's sales in China is not related to the uniformity of charging standards.

Because China's current charging infrastructure is very chaotic. The State Council has standards, and local governments and car companies also play their own tricks. Not to mention the zombie charging stations that have become parking spaces, the charging interface alone is different across the country. Even if Tesla improves the interface, there may not be many third-party charging stations available.

Furthermore, for the Tesla Model S, charging is not the biggest issue - you just have trouble charging during long distances. The rest of the time, when commuting within the city, this car fully meets daily needs. In first and second tier cities, there are Superchargers; At home, there is a wall mounted charging station; In commercial venues, purposeful charging stations; In places without any of the charging stations mentioned above, you have a UMC mobile charger - as long as you can find a 220V power supply.
