Pickups of existing inventories of Model 3 sedans and Model Y SUVs by the end of March would be entitled to a maximum of 34,600 yuan ($4,807.76) worth of incentives, Tesla said in a post on its Weibo account.
Among the incentives are a 8,000 yuan discount in car insurance products with partnerships with Tesla, and a 10,000 yuan discount if the buyer chooses a change of paint.
Tesla also offers limited-time preferential financing plans that could save up to 16,600 yuan for purchases of Model Y.
When asked about the amount of inventory Tesla had in China, a sales representative said it was limited, but declined to provide details.
Tesla didn’t respond to a request for comment.
In the face of slowing demand and rising competition, Tesla slashed prices on some Model 3 and Y cars in China in January and offered cash discounts for some Model Ys from Feb. 1.
Its biggest local rival BYD (002594.SZ) on Friday lowered the starting price of a new version of its Song Pro hybrid SUV by 15.4%.
BYD, which dethroned Tesla as the world's top EV maker in Q4, had responded with even bigger discounts on an array of new car versions in February.
