In his electronic address to Tesla employees, the head of the company said that the goal is quite achievable, but for this everyone needs to give their best.

“ Please do your best to make this happen. This is a great milestone for bringing the company together. All the critics who said just two years ago that we would never get there also called our goal of half a million (EVs) in 2020 “impossible”. To hell with them, we do it! “, – Elon Musk urged Tesla workers.

In order to reach this milestone, Tesla must deliver more than 181,000 vehicles this quarter. This is more than 40 thousand more than in the previous quarter, which was a record for the company.

In his letter, Musk asks workers to put in the finishing touches on the assembly line and prepare for shipment so that more vehicles can be delivered to customers at the end of the quarter. The company will need to move vehicles quickly from the production line to end-users to be considered delivered in the fourth quarter.
