This is good news.
Musks target of 500,000+ cars a year of velocity in 2018 is an insane goal!
By the numbers:
- They have just shy of 400,000 of the 3's on deposit, along with a backlog of other models.
- Last year Tesla shipped about 76,000 cars.
- Their Q4 delivery numbers were <25,000 cars and trailed expectations by about 5%.
- They blamed last quarter on autopilot hardware issues, eg OEM supplier / component issues.
- They made a significant uptick in velocity between Q2 (14,000 cars) and Q4 (22,200 cars).
I can't imagine how hard Tesla is pushing - for any Tesla HN's good luck! We are rooting for you :)
If, somehow, Musk reverses the chronic lateness and hits 500,000 in 2018 it's going to be quite the fireworks show.
