Hello and welcome to the Tuesday December 19th

2017 addition of Tesla Daily Unofficial Tesla Podcast.

My name is Rob Mauer.

Today we are talking about registration statistics for Model S and Model X in Norway,

as well as some small updates on the Tesla Semi and Model 3.

Tesla stock on Monday closed down 1.33% to $338.87,

as compared to the NASDAQ up 0.84%.

Supercharger network update, we are currently at 1,097 supercharging locations with one new station opening up in Norway.

That location fits perfectly with today's topic because I thought we would spend some time today discussing Norway, specifically registration statistics for model S and model X within the country.

Unlike most other countries Norway actually makes their electric vehicle registration statistics publicly available.

That means that we basically get a live update on the number of deliveries that are being

registered within Norway for Model S and Model X, and eventually we will for Model 3 as well.

You can see an aggregation of these statistics specifically for Tesla at Tesla stats.

I'll put a link to that in the show notes but the reason that I wanted to talk about this specifically

today is that yesterday we had an all-time high registration number from Norway for

Model S and Model X at 266 vehicles. That puts December month to date at 1,745 vehicles

registered. This is the second best month historically in Norway.

September of 2017 so the last month of the quarter last quarter was 2004 vehicles

registered.

At the rate that registrations are coming in, December should easily top September

and become the best month ever for Norway registrations.

And Q4, so October through December, is actually already the best quarter for registrations in Norway.
