First boatload of M3 to Europe
- Thread starter Erpel
- Start date
I happened to be driving up the US-101 highway between the Fremont factory and the SF Pier today. I saw a car carrier full of Model 3's heading to the port with overseas Model 3's. The one car I was able to see the steering wheel was LHD. They all had the long skinny rear license plate brackets. Hopefully this means we will see another ship soon coming in to pick up Tesla vehicles.

Don’t think it will take much longer till we will see the first international shipments commence for Q3-2019.
A viable candidate to be the first one to start would be the vessel Triumph Ace which is currently on its way from Portland, Oregon to SFO.
Vessel details for: TRIUMPH ACE (Vehicles Carrier) - IMO 9209506, MMSI 352062000, Call Sign H3CB Registered in Panama | AIS Marine Traffic

Nope that one is heading east.
Speculation is that TYSLA that left Baltimore on the 2nd inbound to Zeebrugge on Thursday 11th may have some Teslas onboard.
That is Glovis Champion.
Glovis Prime is now docked at SFO Pier 80.
Glovis Champion will be unloaded tomorrow.
Vessel #3, SFL Conductor of the current quarter is underway
Vessel #4, Glovis Cosmos is currently being loaded and will likely go to Europe
All in all international shipping is so far comparable to the last quarter. The amount of vessels may however be vastly different from the amount of cars that were shipped hence it is not a straight forward indicator on how Tesla is doing this quarter.

Tesla is starting strong on international shipments. Two already on the way to Europe and two going to Asia - and we are only 2 weeks into the quarter...this quarter will be huge.

Tesla already needs more than 1 boat in Q4 for the Netherlands if they want to break the Q3 record delivery of 7547 model 3 cars in the Netherlands.Maybe they will achieve in delivering 10000 model 3 cars in Q4...
Tesla`s international shipments are looking quite a bit better than the previous quarters. Comparison by the end of the first month into the quarter:
Q4 - Tesla already shipped 8 boat loads internationally (4 to Europe)
Q3 - Only 4 boat loads shipped till end of July
Q2 - 4 boat loads shipped till end of April
Q1 - 4 boat loads shipped till end of January
Looks like they have been exclusively producing M3s for international markets in October 2019 so far.

That doesn't mean her car was made in October. The way Tesla allocates cars to orders means that they probably matched her order to existing inventory.
