Not yet published quarterly report of Tesla Motors, is difficult to judge the impact of discounts on the financial results of the period, but the manufacturer has said the number of electric vehicles, issued during the previous three months. The company managed to ship 24 500 vehicles, of which 15 800 copies were Model S, and 8700 pieces - Model X. Total, compared with the second quarter the number of electric vehicles shipped increased by 70%. Tesla takes into account only those electric cars, which are transferred to customers, and all of the documents have been signed.
Meanwhile, 5,500 electric vehicles by the end of September were in the way, they will be taken into account in the fourth quarter. Release the third quarter managed to 25,185 electric vehicles, it is 37% more than in the second quarter. These indicators allow us to judge that in the second quarter, Tesla also shipped not all issued for the period electric vehicles.
The results of the third quarter in the number of electric vehicles shipped exceeded analysts' expectations. However, the latter is still a lot of questions to the financial situation of Tesla Motors. The company still expects to release in the current half of the year at least 50,000 electric vehicles, but realizes that will not be easy. Firstly, the reporting period is shorter than the previous one. Second, delivery of products in winter conditions takes longer.
As explains Electrek, Tesla Motors company is still determined to increase by 2018 the volume of electric vehicles manufacture up to 500 thousand a year. It does not believe that the level of emissions from the production constraints will be an obstacle to this. Related Products :
