I respectfully completely disagree. I do not think Tesla has any interest other than accelerating the transition to sustainable energy, and “trying to mislead customers” flies directly in the face of that goal.This probably just means Tesla is lying to people placing new orders. I don't know it should be taken as a optimistic outlook for old orders with the same delivery timeframe. The time from order to delivery is something like 15 months on average I think. It hasn't really improved since they started deliveries, as you would expect if production outstripped order rate.
When you say 5k i think you are thinking of last quarter, not last month? April would of had almost no Model X deliveries due to the airbag issue. April was worse than December for deliveries based on the spreadsheet. May was about the same number of deliveries as Jan. So they are way behind this quarter compared to last. Also, I'm not sure Tesla has ever shipped over 100k S/X in a year? 2020, which was the last full production year before they stopped for the refresh had less than 60k deliveries. They had some years that look close to 100k but that was before they started making Model 3's out of the same factory.
I think it must be a mammoth challenge to give reasonable predictions of delivery schedules in today’s environment. This is the most massive complex device most people purchase in their lives. Even with Tesla producing a large proportion of their parts in house, even then they are dependent on raw material suppliers.
