Tesla Publishes Its Own Q4 Delivery Consensus to Set Expectations

The company’s public benchmark comes in below broader Wall Street estimates, priming investors for the official delivery report due in early January.

Overview

  • Tesla posted a company-compiled Q4 delivery consensus showing a median of 420,399 vehicles and a mean of 422,850.
  • Bloomberg’s separate compilation stands higher at about 445,061, highlighting a gap between Tesla’s benchmark and broader Street expectations.
  • If realized, the consensus implies roughly 1.64 million vehicle deliveries for 2025, more than an 8% decline year over year and a second consecutive annual drop.
  • The release aggregates inputs from 20 analysts for vehicles and 16 for energy, with Q4 energy storage deployments estimated at 13.4 GWh.
  • The public disclosure departs from Tesla’s past practice of sharing consensus privately and has been interpreted by outlets as expectation-setting, with some questioning model-level assumptions such as “other models.”
