Tesla Sales By Country

Tesla currently manufactures and sells three EVs – the Model S sedan, the Model X SUV and the Model 3 sedan.

Tesla does not release regional sales figures. But that’s not going to stop us from giving it a shot, isn’t it. So here it is,  a compilation of data from various third party sources lavishly garnished with guesswork.

In 2017, Tesla delivered 101,420 Model S and Model X vehicles and 1,764 Model 3 vehicles.

Tesla Sales in China

Model S and Model X 2017: +16,500

The automaker wasn’t able to maintain the insane growth rate in 2017, but the company confirmed today that it still managed to double sales in China to over $2 billion in 2017. They don’t confirm the number of cars sold per market, but it has to represent over 20,000 vehicles based on their average sale price. – Electrek

Model S Price (Cheapest version): $111k, Model X Price (Cheapest version): $121,000

If we assume average price to be around $120k, Tesla must have sold +16,500 units in China.

If Tesla manages to repeat its 2017 fourth-quarter performance, the company will still end up reporting growth in Norway this year, as the company has now sold 6,321 units in the first three-quarters of 2018 compared to 4,719 units the company sold during the same period last year.
