In Tesla reported on sales: for the 3 months of 2015, 10,030 electric cars were sold

Yesterday, Tesla published an official press release on the work results for the first quarter of 2015. According to him, 10,030 electric cars were sold, and sales growth in this way was 55% compared to the same period last year. The report figures are given with high accuracy (an error of about 1% is possible), because the company independently sells electric cars. Due to this independence in the future, Tesla is planning to publish data on quarterly sales within three days after the end of the quarter.

In early February, it became known that Tesla is experiencing serious problems with sales in China - about 120 electric cars are sold per month. In this regard, a number of top managers of the company should be ready to part with their jobs, if the trend continues. Not least, this was due to the poor organization of the Chinese division of the company. For example, a resident of Shanghai Sunny Zhang (Sunny Zhang) complains that he only got his hands on a car he bought in April.

At the end of March, Ilon Musk admitted that his expectations from the Chinese market were overvalued due to erroneous information received from local retailers. In addition, the local bureaucracy also poses significant obstacles: about 1,600 imported cars could not reach their owners due to licensing problems. However, Musk does not intend to retreat. He still considers the Chinese market as one of the priorities for his company and is not going to leave it.

A couple of days ago, Ilon Mask wrote a tweet in which he said that at the end of April his company would show some new product and "... this is not a car." The market immediately reacted to this statement, and Tesla securities rose in price by 4% in 10 minutes. Thus, the Mask company's capitalization has increased by $ 900 million thanks to just one tweet.
