Waarom zou Tesla.

Zulke events dragen niks bij voor hun.

Tesla doet er ook alles aan daarmee ze niet teveel model 3 zouden bestellen, want de productie is al lang genoeg uitverkocht. Naja gelukkig zijn er nog altijd die afhaken.

Musk ziet liever kopers van de S en X, die zijn sneller leverbaar.

During a question and answer portion of Tesla’s second quarter 2017 earnings call on Wednesday afternoon, Musk mentioned that Tesla has received around 518,000 total reservations for the Model 3 since its initial unveiling in April 2016. Of course, there have been some cancellations — over the past year and change, that number has sunk to around 455,000 net reservations.
It’s difficult to pinpoint the numbers any further than that, because since Tesla’s July 28 debut of the Model 3, the company has been receiving 1,800 new reservations every day. That means if you place a reservation now, you’re going to be at least, like, 464,000th in line. Musk said on July 28 that the wait time for a new Model 3 is close to 18 months, or “late next year,” in his words. Fortunately, the company is still selling Model S and Model X vehicles with little to no wait, which is all part of Musk’s plan to “antisell” the Model 3 in order to get people to pay more for a Model S — as Musk said on Wednesday in reference to the Model 3 in showrooms, “We don’t even want to talk about it really.”
“It’s like if you’re a restaurant and you’re serving hamburgers, and there’s an hour-and-a-half wait for a hamburger, do you really want to encourage people to come buy more hamburgers?” Musk said during the call.
