How many Tesla's in New Zealand

[Miggy]

Hey @Miggy do you have a running total of the number of Teslas in NZ over time?

It wouldn’t just be the sum of registrations over time, due to Teslas being removed from the fleet by being written off or exported.

Cheers!

Not sure, but someone else may know more about this.
On CarJam NZ it has yearly totals and I think written off cars are deregistered.

Wow that's telling. 2024 sales for three months not even half of bugger all.

With the rebates ending, there were likely a number of purchases brought forward. Sales will probably return to a more normal albeit lower level than before in a few months or quarters.

Interestingly, in NSW at least, the removal of the short-lived rebates we had seem to have had very little effect on the sales growth of EVs. February and March this year are the two highest-selling BEV months ever.

I know that provided a purchase contract was entered into prior to 1 Jan 2024, the rebates were still payable on delivery, but I would have thought that all would have flowed through by now and if there was going to be a post-rebate-related slump then March would have been it. But nothing doing so far.
