The first three months of the year were eventful for Tesla, to say the least, with sweeping price drops and the announcement of a new gigafactory in Mexico. Through all of it, Tesla has continued to increase its sales and production, clinching two significant quarterly records in Q1. Tesla shared its Q1 delivery results in […]

Earlier this month we reported on the $3,750 discount being offered to Tesla customers who take delivery of their Model 3 or Model Y this month. Now we’re hearing from multiple reports that Tesla is offering a new incentive to customers to bring home their Tesla before the end of the year: 10,000 free Supercharger […]

I’ve been monitoring Tesla deliveries for years. My job depends on it. Typically, Tesla vehicle deliveries are concentrated at the end of the quarter as the electric automaker scrambles to make (or beat) “the numbers” predicted by Wall Street analysts. Why? This often acts as a catalyst to increase investor confidence. In turn, the company’s stock […]

Tesla reported second quarter vehicle production and delivery numbers on Saturday. The trend of quarter-over-quarter growth finally got broken and year-over-year growth was minimal due to certain supply chain and factory uptime challenges. However, one big positive from the quarter was production in the month of June. Tesla reports that “June 2022 was the highest […]

Tesla’s Q2 production and delivery results are strong. The pundits were in a fury to predict the all-electric car company’s capacity to meet projections. Last week, Reuters outlined why he thought Tesla was expected to end its nearly 2-year-long run of record quarterly deliveries. Reuters was correct about Tesla not setting another delivery record, but […]

The Tesla milestone of 1,000,000 cars created a bit of speculation about Tesla production volume in Q1. As is often the case, some are better at the speculation than others. The best I came across was the InsideEVs estimate by Mark Kane. Therefore, I am going to shamelessly use some of his numbers

In this episode of Tesla Inside Out*, David Havasi tells us about some of the challenges (and fun) of delivering early Tesla Model S sedans to customers around the time of Hurricane Sandy in New York City (back in 2012)

Comparing Tesla’s Q4 2012 sales (deliveries, not orders) to Tesla’s Q4 2019 sales, we can see that Tesla vehicle sales grew 47× in 7 years. Anyone going along with Elon Musk’s forecast of such growth back in 2012 or subsequent years (even up through 2018 and a large portion of 2019) was frequently seen as unrealistically optimistic or “biased.”

This morning Tesla released its Q4 2019 vehicle production and deliveries results, delivering an all time record of approximately 112,000 vehicles in Q4 and ~367,500 vehicles in 2019 overall. This result exceeds the lower end of Tesla’s annual guidance (360,000 to 400,000 vehicles) and is a 50% increase over 2018 deliveries
