The move comes amid rising trade tensions between China and the United States, which has seen extra tariffs slapped on U.S. imports into the country, including automobiles.

“We are absorbing a significant part of the tariff to help make our cars more affordable for customers in China,” Tesla said in a statement.

The firm, which recently launched pre-sales of its new Model 3 car in China, said the car’s pricetag would start from 540,000 yuan ($77,928.83) for a dual motor all-wheel drive version, and 595,000 yuan for a performance version.
