On March 17, someone on the Internet broke the news that Xiaopeng Automobile will increase the price of all models on the 21st (next Monday), with the P7 rising by 20,000 and the P5 and G3i rising by 10,000.
At the same time, the notice also emphasizes that everyone will stop today and make full efforts to invite customers, only in the form of telephone notifications, not allowed to notify customers in text form, or send a circle of friends.
For this matter, Xiaopeng Automobile responded in an interview with the media: "No relevant information has been received for the time being."
Interestingly, Xiaopeng Automobile did not directly affirm or deny the news transmitted on the Internet, so what it contains is worth thinking about.
If the information transmitted online is true, take the P7, which xiaopeng sells the most, as an example, its price range is 224,220-28.58 million yuan, the price increase is 20,000, and the guidance price comes to 24.42-30.58 million yuan.
In recent times, affected by the sharp rise in raw materials, a number of car companies have successively announced price increases, such as BYD, Wuling, Chery, GAC Trumpchi, etc. Tesla has raised prices three times in just 8 days.
In fact, not only them, according to the data released by CCTV Finance, since entering March, nearly 20 new energy vehicle companies have announced price increases, involving nearly 40 models.
Then from this trend point of view, it is reasonable for Xiaopeng to increase the price.
