On July 4, according to TechCrunch, Tesla Electric Vehicles announced today that it had delivered 22,000 cars in the second quarter of 2017, including 12,000 Model S and 10,000 Model X SUVs. Compared with 14,000 vehicles in the same period of 2016, the number of deliveries increased by 53%. In the first half of 2017, Tesla delivered a total of 47,000 cars, while in 2016 it delivered 76,000 cars. However, Stella said that the second quarter delivery was affected by the 100 kwh battery shortage. The company is developing new production line technologies and additional facilities, but it still faces daunting challenges. Tesla said that before the beginning of June, the company’s production demand dropped by about 40%. But after that, Tesla achieved the company's best performance ever, whether it was an order or a delivery. Tesla said that in the second half of 2017, the delivery of Model S and Model X will exceed the first half of the year. The total production of automobiles in the second quarter was 25,708 vehicles. Tesla also said that they used a lot more Model X models for a lot of testing and display, because some shops originally did not have this model. According to the company, the production of the Model X model has significantly improved, and there is very little “initial quality problem†after the new car is offline. Tesla's delivery of the car means that the car was delivered to the customer and all paperwork has been completed. The company also announced that from July 28, Model 3 will be delivered to the first 30 customers in succession. The first batch of certified production vehicles will be assembled on Friday for delivery. (small)
