Tesla could be on track for another record quarter of deliveries and for the first time in its history, may deliver more than 100,000 vehicles in a quarter.
In an email sent out to Tesla employees and viewed by Electrek, chief executive Elon Musk revealed that net orders for the electric car manufacturer this quarter are also on target to reach roughly 110,000.
“We have a shot at achieving our first 100,000 vehicle delivery quarter, which is an incredibly exciting milestone for our company!” the email reads. “The challenge is making sure that we have the right car variants in the right locations and rallying as much as our company resources as possible to help with the end of the quarter deliveries.”

Tesla recorded the best quarter of deliveries in its history in Q2 2019 where it delivered 95,200 vehicles globally and getting deliveries into the six-figure range would be a significant milestone for the company.
It is reported that the electric car manufacturer is limiting incentives in a bid to facilitate deliveries of inventory vehicles by the end of the quarter instead of building and delivering newly-ordered vehicles. The roll-out of the new Model 3 to markets like Australia has no doubt helped Tesla boost its delivery figures.
Not everything is sunshine and rainbows over at Tesla, however. Earlier this week it was revealed that Tesla’s board of directors must defend Elon Musk’s lucrative pay package at a trial. The compensation scheme announced in early 2018 could net the executive more than $50 billion if he meets company milestones over the next decade and raises the company’s market capitalization tenfold to $650 billion.
