A breakdown of Tesla's annual production and delivery volumes in 2021
In terms of models, Model S and Model X deliveries were 11,750 units in the fourth quarter of 2021 (market estimate 12,719 units) and Model 3 and Model Y deliveries were 296,850 units (market estimate 254001 units). Full-year production of Model S and Model X models was 24,390 units with deliveries of 24,964 units, while production of Model 3 and Model Y was 906,032 units with deliveries of 911,208 units.
Tesla's net income and cash flow for the fourth quarter of 2021 will be reported in subsequent quarterly earnings along with other financial results. The statistics on deliveries are slightly conservative, as Tesla only counts the delivery statistic after the vehicle has actually reached the customer and all relevant documents have been completed. The final delivery figures can vary by 0.5% or more. Tesla deliveries are only a measure of a company's financial performance and should not be used as an indicator of quarterly financial performance, which depends on a variety of factors, including cost of sales, foreign exchange flows, and the proportion of directly leased cars.
