Tesla Model 3 inventory decreased tremendously compared to summer
According to an anonymous source speaking to Electrek, Tesla Model 3 inventory decreased to just over 3,300 as of December 27. This was right as Tesla tried to deliver as many cars as possible before the year-end. That's when the federal tax credit gets cut in half (to $3,750) on January 1, 2019 (today).
Having production and sales data of Model 3 for the previous quarter we can estimate. It appears as though in Q4 deliveries were higher than production by over 6,000.
