In its data, Tesla combines the delivery of its high-end Model S and X cars and the more affordable Model Y and 3.
The vast majority of Teslas delivered in 2021 are the latter, which account for 911,000 units of the total for the year and are manufactured at both its Shanghai and Fremont (California) plants.
Musk has stated that he wants to increase Tesla’s sales volume to 20 million a year in the next 9 years, for which the company intends to start producing units of its Model Y in its new plant in Austin (Texas) this year, where it has just moved its headquarters.
