Tesla has simply hit one other manufacturing milestone. Tesla Gigafactory Texas has reached a manufacturing fee of three,000 Mannequin Y (Mannequin Ys?) per week. That’s 156,000 Mannequin Y SUVs/crossovers per yr from this new manufacturing unit, however anticipate the quantity to maintain climbing shortly and finish properly above 156,000 a yr in a yr from now.

That 3,000 per week provides onto the a lot bigger volumes popping out of the Tesla Giga Shanghai and Tesla Fremont factories in addition to the items coming off of the Tesla Giga Berlin manufacturing traces.
Troy Teslike, maybe the perfect Tesla manufacturing and supply tracker on this planet outdoors of Tesla, estimates 245,538 Mannequin Y are going to finish up being produced in 2022 on the Tesla Fremont manufacturing unit, 440,868 at Tesla Giga Shanghai, 50,699 at Tesla Giga Berlin, and 36,654 at Tesla Giga Texas. That involves 737,759 items of the Tesla Mannequin Y produced in 2022.
Hello everyone. Tesla Supply Estimates for This fall 2022 had been as follows on Dec 5:
• My estimate: 428K
• Analyst consensus: 430KMy 428K estimate would imply 42.8% annual development for the total yr. Tesla’s goal is “slightly below 50%”.

General, Troy Teslike has Tesla at 1.37 million electrical automobiles in 2022. We’ll see.
Simply trying on the USA, since that’s the market Tesla Giga Texas provides, we estimate that Tesla offered 57,000 Mannequin Y within the nation within the third quarter. 156,000 automobiles from Texas would provide almost three quarters of demand for the Mannequin Y primarily based on that knowledge. For those who look extra broadly on the US EV market, except for the Mannequin 3, there is no such thing as a mannequin that compares in gross sales quantity. The Chevy Bolt EUV had 14,709 gross sales within the third quarter, extrapolating to not even 60,000 automobiles a yr, and the Ford Mustang Mach-E had 10,414 gross sales, extrapolating to only over 40,000 automobiles a yr.
GM and Ford have been ramping up manufacturing and purpose to promote extra of these fashions in 2023. Neither of them look prone to attain 156,000 gross sales a yr within the USA in 2023, not to mention 200,000+. The Ford Mustang Mach-E is getting a critical bump as much as 270,000 items a yr by the tip of 2023, however that’s for world distribution. The Mustang Mach-E is offered in 37 nations, and that quantity will certainly climb in 2023 as properly. “The excellent news for EV advocates is that 8 in 10 Mustang Mach-E prospects within the US and 9 in 10 prospects in Europe have changed an inner combustion car with a Mustang Mach-E,” Steve Hanley writes. “Demand within the US is so robust that the automobiles stay in seller stock for under about 10 days earlier than discovering a purchaser.”
“Once we put the horse on this Mustang, we knew we’d have skeptics. What we didn’t fairly know then was simply how common this automotive would grow to be,” mentioned Darren Palmer, vice chairman for electrical automobiles at Ford’s EV division generally known as Ford Mannequin e. “I really like seeing Mustang Mach-E automobiles on the highway and speaking to prospects, and I’m seeing an increasing number of of them.”
You would possibly name the Mustang Mach-E the Mannequin Y’s high non-Tesla competitor. Although, in such a younger electrical car market and with a lot shopper demand for electrical automobiles, I see them as cooperators in an effort to de-ICE small and midsize SUVs in the USA and past. We’re removed from our finish purpose on that, however 156,000 extra Mannequin Ys a yr (or 800,000 if you happen to look globally) and 270,000 extra Ford Mustan Mach-Es a yr ought to assist!
