Just noticed this at http://www.caradvice.com.au/328305/new-car-sales-figures-2014-total/
They don't have Tesla - I assume because the figures are derived from self-reporting to the Federal Chamber of Automotive Industries by its members. Here is the original http://www.fcai.com.au/news/news/all/all/379/2014-new-car-sales-results but you have to pay for detailed data which obviously some news outlets do. I guess that there were around 180 Teslas delivered up to late January.
Given the investment by Tesla they must be targeting well over 1,000 cars this year. – it will be interesting to see if sales of other luxury cars are impacted.
Tesla should outsell the BMW 5 and the 7 series put together, Jaguar and the MB S class. It would also be the clear leader in the Large Car above $100k where the total segment was only 1072 cars in 2014.
