Tesla delivered 139,300 vehicles this past quarter — smashing its previous record of 112,000. The company said it produced a total of 145,036 vehicles between July and September.
This was the third consecutive quarter of better-than-expected delivery numbers from Tesla. The numbers also top analyst projections which expected Tesla to deliver 137,000 cars.
The big sellers were the Model 3 Sedan and Model Y crossover SUV. The two vehicles made up 89% of all deliveries at 124,100.
The Model S and X, Tesla’s older and more expensive vehicles, comprised the remaining 11% with deliveries of 15,200.
Tesla says it’s aiming to deliver more than 500,000 vehicles in 2020, an almost 40% increase versus last year.
The company plans to open two more factories in the next couple of years.
