PALO ALTO, U.S./OSAKA -- Electric-car maker Tesla will mass-produce a compact sport utility vehicle in China, seeing it as a weapon for cracking a market that has spawned a host of startups described as "Tesla killers."
The Model Y, the fourth entry in Tesla's lineup, will debut in 2020. A version due out in 2021 will start at $39,000 -- half the price of the Model X luxury SUV.
