Hello everyone, today Xiaobian has come to share the latest corporate information with you. March 14 news, the United States oil prices soared, last week Tesla orders in parts of the United States increased significantly, let's take a look at it with the small editor.
It is understood that the current brent crude oil price is $129 per barrel. The benchmark price averaged $70 in 2021, compared to just $43 in 2016. Oil prices hit a 14-year high on Monday, reaching $139 a barrel.
In addition, the domestic No. 95 gasoline is about to usher in the "9 yuan era", so it is not surprising that people are quickly seeking to buy more fuel-efficient cars. It is foreseeable that sales of hybrid and electric vehicles will almost certainly grow in the coming months.
Notably, the rise in oil prices has also prompted many oil trucks to switch to electric vehicles, with orders for Tesla models in parts of the United States increasing by 100% last week. U.S. oil prices are likely to continue to rise in the coming weeks, potentially allowing Tesla and other electric cars to continue to benefit from them.
In addition, one of Tesla's "major threats" has been eliminated, and its Berlin Gigafactory has begun production. Tesla hopes to eventually increase the factory's production to 500,000 vehicles per year.
On the surface, it does look good for the development of the new energy industry, but in the electric vehicle market, it is also facing a shortage of chips, coupled with various factors such as the rise in electric vehicle premiums and the decline of new energy subsidy policies, the cost of buying electric vehicles is also much higher.
Well, that's all for this issue, see you in the next issue.
