（原标题：21现场｜P7怎么这么便宜？何小鹏：我们把四驱版价格打了下来） 21世纪经济报道 见习记者何煦阳 报道 8月27日，小鹏汽车全新P7上市，官方指导售价区间为21.98万元至30.18万元。在发布会后的采访环 节，小鹏汽车董事长何小鹏谈到P7定价时表示："（P7的）定价实际上我们还是回到刚刚讲的'极致'， 比如为什么全系标配Ultra，为什么全系配双腔空簧。我们实际上蛮期望能把整体的极致性做好。 对四驱版的价格，我们讨论了很久。最开始我们讨论的价格比现在要贵不少，最终我们认为，如果开一 下这个四驱，感觉太酷了，真的很舒服、很澎湃、很舒畅。那么这时我们就想是不是把四驱的价格调下 来一点。 最终我们很艰难地把四驱的价格打下来，因为我们调整了四驱，所以我们把整体的价格都做了一定的调 整。我相信四驱版这次的销量会比我们预期的高，对此我非常有信心。" （视频编辑：柳润瑛） ...
