I do feel for people that have placed an order for a Model 3, especially those outside the USA. Entire years will go by whilst waiting, and in that time, the 3 itself will probably be midlife-updated and the rest of the industry will breeze past.
Presumably deposits are returnable, but still, unhappy times.Tesla reported half a million Model 3 pre-orders in late July. At the company’s current production pace, Tesla Model 3 customer 500,000 might not see her all-electric sedan until the year 2363.
