I'll add one more. 5) No apparent EOQ push.My opinion is that it will surprise on the upside. Reasons
1) Other makes have been more impacted by the chip shortages. Will have led to some people shopping around - not sticking to usual brand.
2) You can buy a Tesla online. People more accepting of this now.
3) China sales bigger than expected
4) I think there have been quite a few ships to Europe this quarter

Ironic how Toyota ads for their hydrogen car call it “electrifying.”
Mexico is in North America, isn't it?Here's what's in Biden's infrastructure proposal
Now that his massive coronavirus relief package is law, President Joe Biden is laying out his next big proposal: A roughly $2 trillion plan for improving the nation's infrastructure and shifting to greener energy over the next 8 years.www.cnn.com
Biden is also proposing to accelerate the shift to electric vehicles with a $174 billion investment in the electric vehicle market. It includes giving consumers rebates and tax incentives to buy American-made electric vehicles and establishing grant and incentive programs to build a national network of 500,000 charging stations by 2030. It would also replace 50,000 diesel transit vehicles and electrify at least 20% of yellow school buses.
If it's just rebates for American made, not sure if the Mustang Mach-E qualifies? (Made in Mexico?)
If Tesla were to actually deliver 170k this quarter, it would mean a near 100k month of March (more than 2x February) if we take this tracker to actually be Global sales through February.My opinion is that it will surprise on the upside. Reasons

On the other hand: we had around 10(?) boats on the way to europe that started to come in in mid-february.. That would be 50k deliveries (so ~30k if you subtract the feb-deliveries).. including the sales in us/china that were not sold in jan because they were put on boats.If Tesla were to actually deliver 170k this quarter, it would mean a near 100k month of March (more than 2x February) if we take this tracker to actually be Global sales through February.
That would be astonishing.
That's exactly what Gordon is doingI believe that delivery estimates are a setup to say Tesla failed. Tesla guidance for 2021 is 50+% growth. 50% YoY in Q1 is 133,500. 60% 142,400. 75% is 155,750. 100% is 178,000. Many of the people putting out estimates where meh to Tesla 50+% growth. With the S and X delivering next to nill this Quarter. This looks like a setup.
Now I do think that the number will be considerably better then 50% growth in Q1, but some of these seem rather inflated.
- Create good jobs electrifying vehicles. U.S. market share of plug-in electric vehicle (EV) sales is only one-third the size of the Chinese EV market. The President believes that must change. He is proposing a $174 billion investment to win the EV market. His plan will enable automakers to spur domestic supply chains from raw materials to parts, retool factories to compete globally, and support American workers to make batteries and EVs. It will give consumers point of sale rebates and tax incentives to buy American-made EVs, while ensuring that these vehicles are affordable for all families and manufactured by workers with good jobs. It will establish grant and incentive programs for state and local governments and the private sector to build a national network of 500,000 EV chargers by 2030, while promoting strong labor, training, and installation standards. His plan also will replace 50,000 diesel transit vehicles and electrify at least 20 percent of our yellow school bus fleet through a new Clean Buses for Kids Program at the Environmental Protection Agency, with support from the Department of Energy. These investments will set us on a path to 100 percent clean buses, while ensuring that the American workforce is trained to operate and maintain this 21st century infrastructure. Finally, it will utilize the vast tools of federal procurement to electrify the federal fleet, including the United States Postal Service.
Good thing Tesla Solar Tiles are practically indestructible!As long as you don't mind the occasional chunk of rocket crashing down around you.
Does anyone have an estimate for the lower bound of P/D numbers needed in order to have a realistic chance of hitting the rumored 1M target for this year? I realize that 1M P/D for 2021 would depend heavily on contributions from Berlin and Austin.
6) No Elon camping at the Fremont Factory.I'll add one more. 5) No apparent EOQ push.
Nothing could be more obviousThat's exactly what Gordon is doing
This quote from the article made me chuckle,is there a primary source online for Biden's plan? IE not someone's summary of it, but the actual thing? the closest i can find is this:
from FACT SHEET: The American Jobs Plan | The White House
I agree with @Pezpunk 's reply but would like to add that neither Berlin nor Austin are needed to hit 1M provided Shanghai ramps as planned. Key to this is when MIC Y production moves from single to multiple shifts. Leaks (which may or may not be dependable) have this happening in April. If that is the case there is likely to be some statement about it in the Q1 ER.Does anyone have an estimate for the lower bound of P/D numbers needed in order to have a realistic chance of hitting the rumored 1M target for this year? I realize that 1M P/D for 2021 would depend heavily on contributions from Berlin and Austin.
As others have mentioned, P/D for Q1 and Q2 should offer some visibility on their internal goals. Others here have a better read on this sort of thing than I do, so I'm just wondering if folks have numbers in mind that would signal one way or another on the achievability of that rumored 1M 2021 target.
10k incentives will not last without a cap. That's 8.5 billion dollars worth of incentives to Tesla this year, 15 billion dollars next year. This does not include other car manufactures. The number will hit 200 billion/year by 2028, 300 billion by 2030. All said and done, by 2030 U.S would have given Tesla more incentive combined than the pentagon
Why wouldn't you electrify more than 20% of school buses by 2030? 100% is inevitable by 2035 with zero govt action.
