What About Pending Reservations? Tesla Begins Offering Immediate Model 3 Delivery

Tesla appears to be trying a bunch of new delivery methods in order to push Model 3 deliveries higher by the end of the quarter.

The automaker now starts ‘immediate deliveries’ of Model 3 on a ‘first come, first served basis’.

It follows our report from yesterday about Tesla holding a massive delivery event at its delivery center in Fremont.

While it was holding the event, Tesla started sending out emails to day-one Model 3 reservation holders about similar opportunities in order markets.

So I’ve been told by someone that bought one last month, if you’re waiting for that $35k version, keep waiting. He bought a $50k version, he waited a month. If you don’t want to wait, get the $65k version...

Typical bait and switch tactics.

I guess the 'night shift' got all the repairs and rework done!

How are deliveries of the almost-mass market priced, under-equipped $35l Model 3s going?

Not sure why it matters if they have more orders of the expensive model than what they can make.
