Tesla Reservation numbers are not vehicle specific, they are shared across product lines. Because of this, it's likely not 3 million. It also makes it difficult to know how many there are without Tesla telling us.
The best guesstimate based on data with a lot of assumptions from the people...
I know right. I am glad to see I am not the only person who bothered to read it.
The article asserts that they don't think the cybertruck will be a failure.
If Reddit has taught me one thing, its that people only read titles, so I am not shocked at all the comments.
Was that a Canada specific price increase in 2020? I am unaware of a price increase in the US during that year (2020) for the Model Y. The only price adjustment in 2020 I am aware of for the Model Y was a decrease in price. Pricing is likely different in various countries though.
Tesla did make...
Do you recall when the Model Y handover event was / or if there was one? I was sure they had one, I can clearly remember watching it and it being really short and not having much information at all, just like a couple dozen vehicles being "delivered". But I can't find any video of it, dates, or...
The Model 3 quarterly deliveries are Global, though realistically they are only for North America for this time period.
I know for a fact that in 2018 there was a brief period of time where Tesla prioritized Canadian deliveries over US deliveries to get them delivered before a change in EV...
I remember the Model 3 rollout fairly well, but I thought I would spend some time actually researching the Model 3 and the Model Y rollouts to provide some data points about this and other similar discussions about pricing and the initial rollout of cars.
Model 3 Important Dates and Info...
One big difference no one has mentioned is that the reveal was at night in an industrial atmosphere, with lots of interesting lighting, with most shots being made by people with a lot of experience shooting content and often better cameras then just a phone. The shots of people taking test...
At some point after the delivery event they will likely begin to trickle out invites to configure and order. Most likely those invites will be sent in batches based on the reservation number and location.
Right now our expectation is that the delivery event will likely occur at the end of the...
Tesla has never changed the pricing on the Cybertruck reservations. Are you maybe including Full Self Driving prices in the cost? They have increased the price for Full Self Driving as an option for all their vehicles, that is the only thing that might have increased.
Most of us do not...
At the announcement event for the Model 3 in 2016, pricing was announced as starting at 35k. Similar to the Cybertruck, they had a reservation order page that went live with the event where you selected a trim and options and it listed all the pricing. Tesla did technically match this pricing...
FSD is not part of the base vehicle cost. I am 95% sure you don't lose the Federal Rebate due to FSD pricing pushing you over. That is my understanding at least.
Please correct me if I am wrong about this, as this is what I have read elsewhere.
I just wanted to point out that history of the various rollouts do not back up that Tesla always launches the most expensive version first.
The Model 3 started with LR RWD, which was sold for roughly 3/4ths of a year before they introduced LR AWD and Performance within a couple of months of...
