Any history showing time from VIN registration to assigning or delivering that VIN to a customer?
@shiz, I follow NHTSA VINs closely. I actually don't use the data posted on twitter because it's not specific enough. Check out the tweets here that show how the user posts the data and how I need the data to be specified. I need to know exactly where RWD and AWD start and end. Therefore, I do my own checks. Below is a screenshot of my spreadsheet.
There is no estimate. spike09 was talking about a different project of mine called the Model 3 Delivery Estimator. That tool is not useful anymore for LR/LRD/P orders from North America. However, European buyers and SR/SRD buyers can find it here.Not sure how to read the spreadsheet. When would you estimate my VIN assignment/delivery?
I'm not sure about that but I will think about it if you explain the idea behind it in more detail.@Troy Maybe you can add another question asking Did Test Drive convinced you to place order?
I'm sure almost all of them are for customers. Somebody asked when the 10,528 AWD VINs Tesla acquired on 4 and 5 August will end up in customer cars and whether there is historical data about that time. I said, there is not data and Tesla is intentionally randomizing VIN assignments making this kind of data completely useless.Are you saying most of today’s 9K are not retail vehicles for customers?
The question about the reservation date creates too many technical challenges. There is already a question asking whether or not somebody has a reservation. This is a mandatory question and it is better than an optional question asking about the reservation date.Is there a way you could add a column for reservation date?
I was just thinking about this concept and looking up recent reported VIN assignment dates versus the dates those VINs were registered. Looks like it's around 3-4 weeks between registration and assignment. Happy to be corrected by people more in the know.Has any analysis been done to determine the delta between VIN registertration vs VIN assignment? For example mine (545XX) was registered on 6/28. A month later was when an ISA reached out to me with a VIN assignment and with good news that the vehicle was in transit to its delivery location.
@Troy, looks like Tesla currently has registered about 10k 'unused' RWD VINs, and 25+k 'unused' AWD VINs. The significant uptick in AWD VINs registered w NHTSA yesterday (and ~no increase in RWDs) has some pretty compelling and obvious implications. Namely, RWD production is fairly minor these days (no surprise given the US market is still absorbing inventory RWDs built during the June/July ramp to 5k+), and presumably AWD North America demand is high (no surprise) and (less surprising) the Tesla supply chain is able to meet that demand without thwarting the overall 5-6k/wk production target. (I do note that your sheet currently has a production rate of ~2500/wk, and it is interesting that Bloomberg is showing 5500/wk currently. I tend to believe your sheet over Bloomberg, given track record.) I am surprised that Tesla can make the front motors at this pace already. Meanwhile white seats do appear to be in short supply given the VIN assignment trends that are ~all black interiors on the AWDs/P+ configs.@shiz, I follow NHTSA VINs closely.
