Tesla usually reveals relevant information about the production and number of shipments of its vehicles weeks before its quarterly results, and this first quarter of the year has been no different. The company founded and directed by Elon Musk has announced that during Q1 2023 has delivered a total of 442,875 vehicles, 36% more than in the same period of the previous year; quite a record.
Tesla, in particular, has delivered 10,695 Model S and Model Xas well as 412.180 Model 3 and Model Y. They are, specifically, 132,927 deliveries more than the 310,048 that the company made during Q1 2022, as well as 37,605 deliveries (4%) more than those of the last quarter of 2022, where the company sent a total of 405.27 vehicles.
Tesla also has produced a total of 440,808 vehicless. Specifically, 19,437 Model S and Model X and 421,371 Model 3 and Model Y. This represents an increase of approximately 44% over the same period of the previous year, where the company manufactured a total of 305,407 vehicles; 14,218 Model S and Model X, and 291,189 Model 3 and Model Y.
Record figure in Tesla deliveries thanks to lower prices in markets such as the United States, Europe or China
These good figures in the number of deliveries of Tesla vehicles could be attributed to the price cut that the company announced in January in markets such as the United States, Europe and China. In Spain, for example, the Model Y went on to cost 48,200 euros compared to the €51,200 it cost in 2022. The Model 3 now costs 346,200 euros compared to the 51,990 euros it cost a year ago.
Despite the record both in the number of deliveries (which can serve as an estimate of the number of company vehicle sales), as well as in the number of production during the first quarter of the year, the figures are somewhat lower than what some expected. investors. They specifically expected a production of 445,920 vehicles, as well as a shipment of about 427,000 in the Tesla Model S, Model X, Model 3 and Model Y.
Tesla, on the other hand, has confirmed that the financial results for the first quarter of 2023 will be published on April 19.
