Tesla announced its third-quarter delivery figures, which hit a new record high with a total of 241,300 vehicles delivered, including:
- 228,882 Model 3/Y produced and 232,025 delivered;
- 8,941 Model S/X produced and 9,275 delivered.
For comparison, Tesla delivered a total of 201,250 vehicles in 2021 Q2, including:
- 204,081 Model 3/Y produced and 199,360 delivered;
- 2,340 Model S/X produced and 1,890 delivered.
Due to the impact of the automotive industry’s supply of parts, delivery of some Tesla models has been delayed. The delivery dates for the standard range Model 3 and long-range all-wheel-drive Model Y in the US have been pushed back to April 2022. The standard range Model Y has been temporarily removed from the shelf due to a shortage of supply.
The delivery time for the domestically produced Model Y Performance has also been delayed by one quarter, and the price has been increased by CNY 8,000.
Despite the shortage of components, the Shanghai factory had a strong performance in the third quarter, with a production capacity of over 40,000 in August. With the full delivery of standard range Model Y in September, Tesla’s Shanghai factory is likely to set a new monthly delivery record in China. We’ll see when the China Passenger Car Association releases their data in a few days.
