Extended read
Tesla's Q2 delivery numbers represent a significant rebound, marking the strongest performance in eight quarters. This volume growth suggests that Tesla's brand remains resilient despite a maturing EV market and increased competition from both legacy and pure-play EV makers. However, the reliance on discounting to achieve these numbers raises concerns about the sustainability of Tesla's industry-leading margins.
