Rumor: Foundation Series Expanded to 20,000 Units (Claims Phone Customer Service Rep)

[KScheidt]

Someone from Reddit claims to have spoken with a Tesla Rep who indicated that the Foundation Series would now represent the first 20,000 units built. Any of our forum members have better insight into this and/or the actual figures? Would be helpful to know how long we might have to wait if we pass up on the Foundation offer (when our numbers are finally called).

Foundation Information Confirmed with Tesla Support -- 20,000 units, you keep your place in line if you decline​

​

Spoke with Tesla rep today. He shared this information:​

1. If you decline a Foundation invite, you will keep your place in line and receive an invite for non-Foundation series once the Foundation runs have completed.
2. Approx 20,000 Foundation series will be made

If they plan to make 20,000, and lets say that many until March (AWD Foundation timeline), that means they will produce 1,538 CTs a Week

If offered I won’t pass on a Beast. Ready with check in hand.

That's a lot of limited editions. I'm part of the first batch of FS invites so hopefully I can put in a standard AWD order in March and get it soon after ? but I think that's still wishful thinking

At this rate, the regular versions will be the rare ones

I'm right behind ya ?

Why would they stop at 20,000? Why won't they go through the 2.5million reservations trying to make an extra 20-40k on as many as they can?

Doesn't seem to be Tesla's usual MO. Tesla reps are the last to know anything.

If this is true, and they were going to increase the foundations from 1,000 to 20,000, the production will not be done by March it would be a dramatic change The first one thousand we're going to be done by March. 20,000 would be done fall 2024.

I think they will sell until no one buys. And enough will buy that they won’t be able to make regular editions next year.

 

[Nabilriaz69]

I think there is a zero error in the number

 

[Phones And Drones]

Tesla always gonna Tesla but…like others have said….Tesla CS reps prob know less then us on these forums ?. There is also no way they make 20k by March. The daily run rate is no
Where near 1.5k yet. But let’s see what happens!

 

[BayouCityBob]

They may expand the FS, but no way they are delivering that many by March. (Also, the 1,000 FS number was just an unsubstantiated rumor in any case so not an "expansion").
