Tesla Noise
2018 timelineThe year in brief
After months of Model 3 production trouble, Tesla reached 5,000 cars a week on July 1 and signed a deal in July to build a factory in Shanghai. Musk's August tweet about taking Tesla private at $420 led to an SEC fraud settlement in September. Model 3 sales passed 100,000 in November and cumulative Tesla sales reached 500,000 in December; in February Musk's own Roadster was launched into orbit around the Sun.
Nach monatelangen Problemen mit der Model-3-Produktion erreichte Tesla am 1. Juli 5.000 Autos pro Woche und vereinbarte im Juli den Bau eines Werks in Shanghai. Musks Tweet vom August über einen Börsenrückzug zu 420 US-Dollar je Aktie mündete im September in einen Vergleich mit der SEC wegen Betrugsvorwürfen. Im November überschritt das Model 3 100.000 Verkäufe, im Dezember erreichte Tesla insgesamt 500.000; im Februar war Musks eigener Roadster in eine Umlaufbahn um die Sonne geschossen worden.
Tras meses de problemas de producción del Model 3, Tesla alcanzó 5.000 coches por semana el 1 de julio y en julio firmó un acuerdo para construir una fábrica en Shanghái. El tuit de Musk de agosto sobre sacar Tesla de bolsa a 420 dólares terminó en septiembre en un acuerdo con la SEC por acusaciones de fraude. Las ventas del Model 3 superaron las 100.000 en noviembre y las de Tesla llegaron a 500.000 en diciembre; en febrero el propio Roadster de Musk fue lanzado a una órbita alrededor del Sol.
Après des mois de difficultés de production de la Model 3, Tesla a atteint 5 000 voitures par semaine le 1er juillet et a signé en juillet un accord pour construire une usine à Shanghai. Le tweet de Musk d'août sur un retrait de la Bourse à 420 dollars a abouti en septembre à un règlement avec la SEC pour fraude. Les ventes de la Model 3 ont dépassé 100 000 en novembre et celles de Tesla 500 000 en décembre ; en février, le Roadster personnel de Musk avait été placé en orbite autour du Soleil.
经过数月的 Model 3 生产困境，特斯拉于 7 月 1 日实现周产 5,000 辆，并于 7 月签署在上海建厂的协议。马斯克 8 月发推称考虑以每股 420 美元将特斯拉私有化，此事于 9 月以与 SEC 就欺诈指控达成和解告终。Model 3 销量于 11 月突破 10 万辆，特斯拉累计销量于 12 月达到 50 万辆；2 月，马斯克本人的 Roadster 被送入环绕太阳的轨道。

In Q3, we produced 80,142 vehicles, 50% more than our prior all-time high in Q2, including: • 53,239 Model 3 vehicles, which was in line with our guidance and almost double the volume of Q2. During Q3, we transitioned Model 3 production from entirely rear wheel drive at the beginning of the quarter to almost entirely dual motor during the last few weeks of the quarter. This added significant complexity, but we successfully executed this transition and ultimately produced more dual motor than rear wheel drive cars in Q3.
