Later, from The WSJ:
Sunday’s results mean Tesla’s rate of growth can slow in the second half to 24% compared with the same period a year ago and still meet Wall Street expectations for 1.82 million deliveries this year. Some investors are hopeful that Tesla’s price cuts hit a bottom in the second quarter.
*************************
Actual
Total deliveries Q2 2023: 466,140.
Total production Q2 2023: 479,700.
The numbers beat analysts’ expectations and indicate that deliveries rose 83% year-over-year for Tesla after Elon Musk’s auto business added manufacturing capacity, and ramped up production at its vehicle assembly plant in Austin, Texas.
Tesla groups deliveries into two categories but does not report individual model or region-specific numbers.
The second quarter of 2023 marked the fifth period in a row when Tesla reported a higher level of vehicles produced compared to deliveries.
During the second quarter of last year, Tesla reported 254,695 deliveries, and in the first quarter of 2023, Tesla reported 422,875 deliveries.
During the second quarter of 2022, Tesla produced 258,580 vehicles and last quarter it produced 440,808 vehicles.
Deliveries are a carefully watched number by Tesla shareholders and are the closest approximation of sales disclosed by the company.
Wall Street was expecting Tesla to report deliveries of 445,924 for the period ending June 30, 2023.

Forecast
Locator: 45076TSLA.
Tesla is slated to announce record deliveries for the second quarter, probably on Sunday, July 2, 2023.
Wall Street predicts Tesla deliveries growing 74% to 445,000, according to FactSet.
The big year-over-year increase reflects easy comparisons to Q2 2022, when Tesla's Shanghai plant was shut down for Covid lockdowns for several weeks. Also, the Berlin and Austin, Texas, plants were slowly ramping up output.
On Monday, Deutsche Bank raised its TSLA stock price target to 230 from 200, and maintained a buy rating on the shares. The firm revised its estimates for Q2 deliveries to 448,000 units, above analyst consensus. Deutsche Bank predicts about 168,000 vehicles sold in North America, 153,000 in China, 87,000 in Europe and 23,000 in the rest of the world.
