Tech Planet March 28 news, March 26, in the China Electric Vehicle 100 high-level forum, Ideal Auto CEO Li Xiang responded to the recent price increase of new energy vehicles, saying that lithium carbonate will be the same as oil, no longer calculated by cost.
Li wanted to say, "The cost of lithium carbonate may be 30,000-50,000 yuan, it should not be so expensive, this is a huge profit, but in terms of oil, the price of oil is not according to the cost."
Previously, Li Xiang said through social media that the increase in battery costs in the second quarter was very outrageous. Most of the brands that have not yet increased their prices have not yet been negotiated, and they will generally increase prices immediately after they are negotiated.
Subsequently, the official account of Ideal Auto released the news that due to the continuous sharp rise in upstream raw materials, from April 1, 2022, Ideal Auto will adjust the selling price of Ideal ONE, and the national unified retail price will be raised from the current 338,000 yuan to 349,800 yuan.
The price adjustment will take effect from 00:00 on April 1, 2022, and users who have paid deposits through the Ideal Auto App, Ideal Auto's official website and Ideal Auto Retail Center before that time will not be affected by this price adjustment.
