Tesla produced and delivered more than 200,000 cars last quarter. This means that the company has further increased production compared to the first three months of this year. Analysts had expected slightly more.
More than 99 percent of all cars Tesla made and delivered to customers were Model 3 and Model Y. These are the smaller coupe and SUV the company makes. Tesla made 204,081 of those models and delivered 199,360.
The Model S and Model X, the larger coupe and SUV, produced 2340 units, and Tesla delivered 1,890 to customers. However, production of the Model S was stopped for some time because Tesla was working on a renewed version of that model.
Tesla does not disclose where it sold its cars. However, the company has car factories in the United States and China and is working on a large factory near Berlin.
Where many car companies recently had to stop production for some time due to chip shortages, Tesla did not have to. According to the company, the employees have “did an excellent job in bypassing logistical and delivery problems”.
