Tesla hasn’t delivered fewer cars per quarter since 2020 than in the same period last year, and it hasn’t delivered fewer than 400,000 cars per quarter since a third of 2022.
Tesla blamed the decline in part on a switch to an updated version of the Model 3 sedan; this version, along with the Model Y SUV, accounted for 96% of deliveries in the quarter. The company also mentioned supply issues related to the situation in the Red Sea and the temporary halt of production at a facility in Germany.
As reported by Ukrinform, the Tesla company has increased the price of Model Y electric cars in the US by $1,000 since April 1.
