    "Tesla has accelerated its Model Y delivery timeline and it’s not clear why. Has the automaker managed to accelerate production, or is demand down, or both?

    "After Tesla restarted production at Fremont factory earlier this month, we reported on Tesla updating its Model Y and Model 3 delivery timelines.

    "For Model 3, the automaker changed the delivery timeline for new orders from 4-8 weeks to 5-7 weeks.

    "Model Y didn’t have a timeline before the shutdown since Tesla just started delivering previously reserved vehicles, but it was set to 8-12 weeks for new orders after Tesla restarted production earlier this month.

    "Now just 2 weeks later, Tesla has drastically reduced the Model Y delivery timeline for new orders to just 4 to 8 weeks in the US.

    ...a significant reduction in delivery delay for a brand new model for which Tesla had been accumulating reservations for over a year."

    I wouldn't be surprised if there hasn't been a significant reduction in demand for Tesla cars, or for any manufacture's cars for that matter.

    The good news, if any, is that the cheaper Model Y should be out much sooner.

    Hopefully, Tesla can weather the storm.

    In about 30 days, we should get the Q2 production and delivery numbers. Regardless, it is harder to sell any new car in a Depression II economy.

    TSLA up to $885 when I took a peek today.
