Wasn’t there a rumour about a large order from a hire company possibly Hertz?

2022 Shipping Movements

The Hertz order is for model 3, and I'm guessing mainly in the US. All the export model Y will still need shipping from China at the least, also I think it's unlikely Chinese M3 will be exported to US, but time will tell
I guess they slowed down in order to pickup someone "similar" to a Brixham pilot but I might be wrong.. @Mr Miserable what do you think?Jeez another alert tonight for the RCC Classic : Proximity with Cherbourg Pilot 3.
Looks like they almost collided.
How strange is that ship
She took on a 'Brixham pilot' off Cherbourg.Jeez another alert tonight for the RCC Classic : Proximity with Cherbourg Pilot 3.

They normally transfer by helicopter from Cherbourg so it's often not as obvious as when they stop off Brixham.
I don't think Fremont has the capacity to satisfy the order on it's own, so they will have to rely on Chinese imports. It shouldn't be a problem, eg all the Apple stuff comes from China.
The problem I think is whether Hertz can handle 100,000 cars delivered in a quarter - I suspect they will struggle with that, nevermind the fact that they will be EVs as well which will also require investment in charging infrastructure. Is the rental market ready for EVs on this scale? Are the franchise holders prepared?
I just hope Elon's got the money upfront.
Whatever, I shall be looking for ships heading across the Pacific from Shanghai later next month.
Indeed, I'll be happy when she finally docks. Should happen in the next minutes.
RCC CLASSIC has arrived in Zeebrugge.
MALACCA HIGHWAY has arrived at an anchorage off Dublin. I'm not sure how long she will be held there but let's hope it won't be for long.
I suspect that there will be no more Tesla ship movements this quarter.
For those whose cars have arrived, I hope that this thread made the wait a bit more entertaining and for those who will have to wait a little bit longer I hope you will rejoin the thread next month when I shall be looking for the next ships to depart from Shanghai with Teslas onboard.
We had 15 ships this quarter, despite the Chinese New Year, line reconfigurations and the ever present thread of COVID disruption.
In Q2 the COVID threat in China is even larger and it will be a miracle if the GF is able to maintain production unscathed. For those waiting for Model 3s Q2 will seem to drag on forever as production gets shipped elsewhere but there will still be shipments of MY to UK & EU despite Berlin finally coming online.

Finally the journey of my car on the sea is ended, now starts the one on the truck lol. Thanks again @Mr Miserable for the beautiful work you do here, providing information to all the fellow tesla owners waiting for their cars. Much appreciated.
Is the ship being unloaded already? any way to check this?
I'm right with you here!
I have a fixed delivery date somewhere in the two middle weeks of May (9th to 20th).. Something HAS to leave Shanghai first week of April...
Now that the RCC Classic is moored another story begins.
I wanted to thank all of you, especially @Mr Miserable for your kindness your help while following the shipments.
I wish you all the best.

Have to agree. It’s kinda sad how the thread slowly fades but I suppose it means more shipments arriving. Roll on the next quarter for more excited future owners asking the same questions that we all did! Thanks to everyone for their help especially @Mr Miserable

MALLACA HIGHWAY’s booking at Dublin Port has now changed from 11pm tonight to 12noon tomorrow… let’s hope that doesn’t mess up our deliveries starting on Thursday!
Looks like Prometheus Leader has unloaded quite a lot of Tesla, but it's hard to see for sure, maybe we could have a whip around and get Drammen a better webcam?
Difficult to know for sure but it is likely to be built in the last couple of days in a March or early April. Keep reading this thread for information on possible ships/tracking Information.
