For Q2, assuming May 11th Fremont opening, I think TE will pickup due to storage, but lag still due to solar. Fremont with 6 weeks of deliverable cars and 7 weeks of build-able cars, should be able to deliver about 50,000 cars in the USA and Canada. Maybe they can ship one ro-ro of cars to Europe and S. Korea, but still limited to 50,000 total deliverable. Shanghai could be over 3000 per week, but 40,000 seems like a reasonable number for MIC Model 3 delivered. That would be more deliveries than Q2 2019, but probably a bit less in revenue, with a lower SX mix (14517 SX & 72531 M3 in Q2/2019). Margins could still be good, with a higher mix is MIC and some expected process improvements in Fremont. I don't want to be looking through rose colored glasses, but it seems like Q2 could be revenue neutral. Every quarter they can stay revenue neutral through this epidemic is a victory and if they can show a profit, it really positions them to exit the crisis with incredible momentum.
Tesla also predicted MIC Model 3 production would be 4000 per week by mid 2020. That's a loose way of saying June, so they should be over 3000 per week for most of this quarter.
