Tesla has announced its fourth-quarter production and delivery results. It delivered a record 936,000 vehicles, which is 87% up from its 2020 delivery count.
Huge demand
The numbers are jaw-dropping given the global chip shortage affecting the automotive industry. The production increase was boosted by growing demand from car buyers in China. Enthusiasm for electric vehicles also encouraged the demand. The Austin, Texas-based carmaker delivered 308,600 vehicles in the final quarter of 2021.
