BEIJING: The made-in-China Tesla has arrived. That’s getting investors excited about everything that goes into the electric vehicles - from valves and auto glass to headrests and seats. The enthusiasm for Tesla’s Chinese suppliers may be premature, though.

Beijing has given Elon Musk all that the US couldn’t: cash, concessions and cheap development costs. Tesla Inc.’s revenue from China accounted for about 11% of its total for the quarter ended September, up from 6% a year ago.

China has been production heaven for Musk. Tesla’s capital expenditure for the Shanghai factory declined 65% on a unit production capacity basis compared with its US manufacturing hub in Fremont, California, according to analysts at China International Capital Corp. The Shanghai plant was built in less than a year and can already produce more than 3,000 cars per week.

Sanhua shares have risen more than 70% in Shenzhen since the middle of last year, as made-in-China Teslas came closer to becoming a reality. Shanghai Baolong Automotive Corp., which provides tire-pressure monitoring systems, has seen a similar advance over the same period; Ningbo Huaxiang Electronic Co., a maker of rear-view mirrors, has climbed more than 60%.The auto sector accounts for only a small portion of Sanhua’s revenue.
