Tesla report of its second quarter result for 2025, shows a 13.5% decrease from the 444,956 deliveries it made in the second quarter of 2024. In the area of production, the difference is minimal — the carmaker produced 410,831 vehicles in Q2 2024 and 410,244 in Q2 of 2025.
In the second quarter of 2025, the Model 3 and Model Y overshadowed the rest of Tesla’s lineup, accounting for 96.73% (396,835) of production and 97.3% (373,728) of sales. This shows an increase of around 1.5% in the dominance of the Model 3 and Y compared to the first quarter of the year, when they made up 95.15% of production and 95.59% of sales.
Beyond the political backlash surrounding Tesla and Elon Musk, the company is also facing fierce competition from a growing number of Chinese EV makers — especially BYD. Last year, BYD surpassed Tesla to become the world’s largest EV manufacturer, producing over 4 million vehicles.
Tesla, however, gained some attention last month with the launch of Robotaxi, its first vehicle auto-delivery, and the 70,000 Tesla-Supercharger milestone. Also last month, Tesla announced its first LFP cell manufacturing factory in Nevada is almost completed.

I have always been fascinated by technology and digital devices my entire life and even got addicted to it. I have always marveled at the intricacy of even the simplest digital devices and systems around us. I have been writing and publishing articles online for about 6 years now, just about a year ago, I found myself lost in the marvel of smartphones and laptops we have in our hands every day. I developed a passion for learning about new devices and technologies that come with them and at some point, I asked myself, "Why not get into writing tech articles?" It is useless to say I followed up the idea — it is evident. I am an open-minded individual who derives an infinite amount of joy from researching and discovering new information, I believe there is so much to learn and such a short life to live, so I put my time to good use — learning new things. I am a 'bookworm' of the internet and digital devices. When I am not writing, you will find me on my devices still, I do explore and admire the beauty of nature and creatures. I am a fast learner and quickly adapt to changes, always looking forward to new adventures.
