First Tesla online store opened in China

 U.S. electric car company Tesla announced that it opened its first online flagship store on China's leading e-commerce platform Tmall.com.

Consumers can purchase auto parts and charging services as well as make test drive reservations at the online store.

Tesla said it hopes to better serve the younger generation of consumers in China by expanding into a third-party platform, Xinhua reported.

China is a growing market for Tesla. In April, Tesla introduced its latest version of the Model 3, and sales of the Model 3 have reached 10,000 in total in China.
