Tesla has sold 'thousands' of Model 3s in Australia, making it the best selling EV in the country - techAU
“..as one small team, are all working tirelessly to accommodate for the thousands of orders we have currently.”
I will not be surprised if September 2019 sets a record for Model 3 deliveries in Australia that stands for some time...
There is an initial backlog of demand and some indications they may have the cars here, delivering them is the challenge....
And the delivery team I work with is much less responsive than they were 2 weeks ago.
Here are some numbers to back that up - unnamed source to but seems plausible. Note this is arrivals into the country, not deliveries:
Tesla vehicle arrivals into Australia per month. Note August was our first month of Model 3 arrivals! : teslamotors
So about 900 cars arrived in Australia in August, about twice that many coming in Sep according to the post. As the Model 3 bump in the plot only begins in August, it looks like there was no significant number of 3s shipped to AUS in July, so IMHO we can pretty much equal the arrivals to deliveries, maybe even a bit less delivered if Sep ships don´t arrive too late. So estimate for Australia for Q3 (Tesla total) should be 2500-3000.
If this is true, the headline I quoted of thousand sold is misleading - it should then be thousands ordered (but not yet delivered).
