Hey everybody Rob mower here and today we're talking about an important milestone

for Tesla.

Elon Musk has just tweeted out that Tesla today produced their one millionth vehicle as a company.

So first of all, huge congratulations to Tesla for that milestone

and I wanted to take a look quickly at what that might mean

for quarterly production.

I've already gotten some questions on

Twitter about this so I figured I just make a quick standalone

episode here to discuss that. Unfortunately Tesla's quarterly

production and delivery updates have not actually been a thing throughout

Tesla's entire history and even in their older earnings reports they didn't

necessarily share their production numbers every quarter so there are three quarters back in 2013 that I'm

missing production numbers for so if you're watching this on YouTube you can see those here along with the

rest of Tesla's production over the years. Now these numbers don't include the

Roadster and I assume Elon is counting those in this million vehicle production

number so we have to add those in here. Tesla produced just shy of 2,500 roadsters. production number

of, so we have to add those in here.

Tesla produced just shy of 2,500 roadsters.

And then the total production number that I have here for model S,

model X, and model 3 cumulatively,

excluding those three quarters that are missing data is about 900,600 vehicles and then to fill in the gap for those three quarters

We can at least a look at Tesla's deliveries over that period of time and that should get us pretty close to production
