Model Y Sales in China
We wrote a couple months ago that the Model Y Standard Range would sell like hotcakes in China. This has proven to be true.
I expect that we will continue to see the Model Y sell more and more in China as the months go by. It will end up being Tesla's best selling vehicle.
Elon Musk has also said that the Model Y could be the best selling vehicle by revenue in the world by 2022, and possibly by volume in 2023.
