Tesla 's Model 3 and Model Y vehicles entered the list of 124 electric vehicle and hybrid models in a Chinese government-backed campaign to promote sales in rural areas, the industry ministry statement on Tuesday.

Tesla Inc.’s new-vehicle registrations fell further in France, undercutting Chief Executive Officer Elon Musk’s assertion last month that the carmaker has recovered from its early-year sales slump.
