Tesla just nearly missed CEO Elon Musk’s goal of delivering 500,000 cars in 2020. All of the electric vehicles it produced were Model 3 sedans and Model Y crossover SUVs during the quarter, and it didn't produce any of its more expensive Model S sedans and Model X SUVs and It delivered 2,020 Model S and Model X vehicles from inventory. 


In a statement, Tesla wrote that with "new equipment installed and tested in Q1" the company is now "in the early stages of ramping production" for updated versions of the S and X. Earlier in January, Tesla CEO Elon Musk said: "We have been able to bring forward the Plaid Model S and X – Model S will be delivered in February and Model X a little later." He added that "The Model S Plaid, we're actually in production now."

Tesla redesigned Model X and Model S in January 2021. Tesla says the redesigns were “exceptionally well-received” and that it’s in the early stage of ramping up production on both new models.

When Tesla shared its Q4 2020 financial figures, it announced that its factory in Shanghai could allow it to produce as many as 1.05 million cars in a year. Tesla and Musk hasn’t yet announced any delivery goals for 2021, but Tesla seems like it’s starting on the right foot to beat last year’s 500,000-car goal.
