Australian Model 3 Waiting Room
- Thread starter rgc1990
- Start date
I think an uptick was always expected as the China subsidy reduces on 31Dec afaik.
Last month of the quarter has always been dedicated to domestic production with very few or zero exports.
What's more impressive is that Shanghai seemingly produced 70k cars in the month - which is a record.
So hopefully means more capacity for exports in January (the first month of the quarter).
The other interesting thing to see will be whether Tesla suffers any materials shortages.
Reportedly Central Government is force closing many dirty industries (steel, aluminium etc) so Beijing can have a blue sky Winter Olympics.

Hmm mine hasn't updated... I've heard that with orders outside of cities with delivery centres (i.e. Tas) it's handled differently - as an example, for many the date just never shows up on the account page, and all notifications are via SMS.

I am on the corp program too, order 7/12 - at that stage it was to end 31/12, but was told ordering on time secured the discount.

This. The way it worked for me is that as soon as the car was allocated to me Tesla issued an invoice and the website starts telling you to pay. I waited and paid when Vedaprime told me that it had been booked on a transporter out of Port Kembla. As an aside, if you want to track your car's delivery to level of knowing when the ship is on arrives in Australia, sign up for Vedaprime's service.
Tesla will be doing everything in their power to deliver your car this quarter, they need the sales numbers. In the unlikely event that they miss the delivery this quarter, I can't see them reissuing you an invoice getting you to pay the lost corporate discount.
Hi chuq,
I live about 2 streets away from you and also ordered an sr+. Ordered my on 1.12.2021 and have no updated delivery on my either

Yes, we are just outside the 250km delivery radius (268km) from Sydney so your theory may hold water.
Where do you see the EDD on the app. I ordered on 29/11/2021 and I am unable to see it. When I booked, it showed 8-12 weeks

Don't expect to, the Tesla purchase experience is similar to buying a phone from Telstra. You'll next hear from them once they've assigned you a VIN and the issue you an invoice for payment.

FYI. Tesla in New Zealand sold 619 Model 3's in December for a total of 3279 for 2021
So I would say that Australia should be about four or five times this number.
Estimated Delivery: 8-12 weeks for RWD and LR
Estimated Delivery: 14-20 weeks for Performance
