[Original by Dongchedi Industry] According to the official announcement of Tesla, its delivery volume in the third quarter was 97,000 vehicles. Although it failed to achieve the previous 100,000 vehicles, it still set a new delivery record. It is reported that in the third quarter, the total production of Tesla Model S and Model X has been 16,318 vehicles, and a total of 17,400 vehicles have been delivered; the total production of Model 3 has been 79,837 vehicles, and a total of 79,600 vehicles have been delivered; the total production of the three models is 96,155 vehicles, and a total delivery of 97,000 vehicles. From the data, Model 3 is still the sales responsibility of Tesla .

In the first three quarters of this year, Tesla's global delivery volume reached 255,200 vehicles, with delivery volumes in each quarter being: 63,000 vehicles in the first quarter, 95,200 vehicles in the second quarter, and 97,000 vehicles in the third quarter. Tesla is still the best-selling pure electric vehicle manufacturer in 2019.

But even so, this sales figure is still far from Tesla’s ambitious goal this year. In early 2019, Tesla set a delivery target of 360,000 to 400,000 vehicles this year, and after three quarters passed, there is still a gap of 104,800 vehicles to the minimum target.

will deliver more than 100,000 vehicles in the next three months, which will bring huge tests to Tesla's "fragile" production capacity. Although Tesla's Chinese factory will be put into production and start delivery by the end of 2019 and has set a goal of "producing 3,000 Model 3s per week", the Shanghai factory's role in driving Tesla's overall sales may not be revealed until 2020. Therefore, based on experience in the past three quarters, Tesla's sales target this year may not be able to be achieved.

However, for Tesla, the outside world's sales figures are not as prudent as analysts on Wall Street . Even if the sales target is not achieved, Tesla is still a tough player in the electric vehicle market in 2020. After the Shanghai factory is put into production, the goal of achieving 500,000 electric vehicles by June 30, 2020 may not be a dream.

From the market reaction, investment institutions are still optimistic about Tesla's development in China. Just recently, Tesla China signed a financing agreement with China Merchants Bank , which contains an unsecured 12-month revolving loan of up to 5 billion yuan. This will help Tesla promote the construction progress of its Shanghai factory and the subsequent production plans to start construction as scheduled.
