In the first three months of the year, the company delivered over 300,000 vehicles.

This was an *exceptionally* difficult quarter due to supply chain interruptions & China zero Covid policy.

Outstanding work by Tesla team & key suppliers saved the day.

The company suspended production at its largest manufacturing facility twice last month. In the first quarter of the year, the company delivered over 300,000 vehicles, a significant increase from the first quarter of the previous year. In the first quarter of the year, the Model 3 and Model Y made up the majority of its deliveries, with 295,324 of those cars making their way to consumers. The company produced over 300,000 vehicles over the same time frame, which is not insignificant when you consider the supply chain issues that have affected other manufacturers.

In the first quarter of the year, it was seen that the $5.5 billion Gigafactory in Germany was shipping vehicles. 500,000 cars a year will be produced from the plant.
