Word that particular person mannequin gross sales are estimates (very knowledgeable estimates) — Tesla doesn’t break up out the numbers that a lot. What Tesla offers is these numbers:

The Tesla Mannequin 3 & Y lastly had one other dip final quarter. The general development you see in that line graph, although, is rise upon rise upon rise — so steeply.
