Tesla has announced its Q3 2020 vehicle production and deliveries the morning, with 145,036 produced and 139,300 delivered.
The breakdown is as follows:
Model S/X
Production: 16,992
Deliveries: 15,200
Model 3/Y
Production: 128,044
Deliveries: 124,100
Tesla’s record deliveries of 139,300 beats its previous record of 112,000 vehicles in Q4 2019.
