It's gotta really piss them off to hear all the pundits say, "That's a 40% increase from 2021 levels but well south of CEO Elon Musk's promise of 50% growth rates". Especially this year, when every other manufacturer is struggling to grow period!As someone pointed out. Tesla produced 440k vehicles last quarter. 1.8m vehicles is just maintaining the production rate they had leaving 2022. So it would be essentially zero growth in capacity.
I donāt think thatās likely to happen. I think the 1.8m number was a lowball. Thatās Tesla making a goal they know they can beat. After listening to 3 months of āTesla is missing their estimateā and watching the stock price tumble and all the accusation and bullshit, they made it pretty explicit what to expect as a minimum.
So yeah, Elon and Tesla are lowballing them all!
