Tesla announced on Thursday that it has produced its 10 millionth vehicle worldwide, marking a major manufacturing milestone for the electric vehicle pioneer. The 10 millionth vehicle, a Model Y, left the assembly line at the Fremont Factory in California this week, just over six years after the company delivered its first millionth car there in March 2020.
CEO Elon Musk called the achievement “an incredible amount of work,” according to Musk. The production pace accelerated after Gigafactory Shanghai opened in late 2019, followed by Berlin and Texas plants in 2022.
Intermediate milestones illustrate the ramp: six million in March 2024, seven million at Fremont in October 2024, eight million at Berlin in June 2025, and nine million at Shanghai in December. The latest million arrived in about seven months, with Model 3 and Model Y accounting for the large majority of volume.
Meanwhile, the company continues expanding into energy storage and robotics while maintaining its focus on electric passenger vehicles. Earlier this year, Tesla retired its more premium Model S and X vehicles to focus on a pivot to vehicle autonomy and robotics, and has already begun production of its dedicated robotaxi, the Cybercab, and its Semi truck for fleet customers.
On Stocktwits, retail sentiment around TSLA rose from ‘bearish’ to ‘neutral’ over the past 24 hours, while message volume stayed at ‘high’ levels. TSLA shares had gained nearly 4% at the time of writing, after six consecutive days of closing in the red, though the stock has lost 31% year-to-date.
