Tesla delivered 310,048 vehicles in the first quarter of 2022. Despite what Tesla CEO Elon Musk says was an’exceptionally difficult quarter’.

The model 3 and Y made up 295,324 of these deliveries, while 14,724 were for the Model S and X. Deliveries increased slightly from the previous quarter’s 308,600 deliveries. Tesla managed to build a total of 305,407 vehicles.

This was a difficult quarter due to supply chain interruptions & China zero covid policy. outtanding work by Tesla team & key suppliers saved the day.

The Shanghai plant is the company’s largest, producing both model 3s and model YS. Last month, Tesla closed its Shanghai factory for two days amid a spike in covid-19 cases.
