Summary
Tesla’s Shanghai factory is on fire, smashing records with over 89,000 Model 3s and Ys delivered in June — a 24% jump from last year — and it’s the eighth straight month of year-over-year growth. Q2 sales show even stronger momentum, up 32% year-on-year, proving this isn’t a fluke. The surge? Partly fueled by European buyers fleeing gas prices amid Middle East tensions, making Shanghai Tesla’s key export hub. But with global fuel prices potentially stabilizing, Tesla’s future hinges on keeping Chinese consumers happy — and outpacing fierce local rivals like BYD and Xiaomi who’re dominating the EV race at home.
