Tesla China: Protesters upstage company at Shanghai Auto Show

CNN  

Hong Kong/Beijing CNN Business — Tesla has been swept up in yet another controversy in China, even as the company tries to win new customers there with cars it says will be tailor-made to match their preferences. This week, Tesla’s booth at the Shanghai Auto Show was briefly besieged by protesters complaining about problems with its cars, criticism that has dogged Elon Musk’s company for months in the world’s biggest market. The incident overshadowed an announcement the US company made the same day, when a senior Tesla executive told Chinese newspaper 21st Century Business Heraldthat the automakerwould start developing some of its vehicles in China from scratch — with new models that would incorporate “many Chinese elements.” While the vehicles would be designed based on Chinese consumer research, they’ll also be sold around the world, Grace Tao Lin, Tesla’s vice president of external affairs in China, was reported as saying. State-run news agency Xinhua hit out at Tesla on Tuesday, with a blistering commentary titled: “Who gives Tesla the confidence to be uncompromising?” The article called Tao’s response “arrogant,” which showed “no sincerity of addressing the problem.” Prosecutorial Daily, the official newspaper for China’s top prosecution authority, also blasted Tesla. Last month,the billionaire CEO appeared for a rare interview with state broadcaster China Central Television, heaping praise on the Chinese government and predicting that the country could “become the biggest economy in the world.” Days earlier,he showed up virtually at an important government conference, saying that his company’s cars would never be used for spying in the country.
