Tesla CEO Elon Musk has noted a few times in the past that the automaker aims to get away from the huge end-of-quarter and end-of-year delivery waves. It really shouldn't matter if a car is delivered on December 31, 2022, or in transit to be delivered on January 2, 2023. However, the media and Wall Street put lots of emphasis on companies' guidance and targets.
Tesla aims to increase its deliveries by around 50 percent year over year. The last few years have been rocky thanks to COVID-19 and the aftermath it caused. However, the US electric automaker has been able to stay ahead and prove its worth. That said, many recent developments point to a drop in demand, which means Tesla may be pushing even harder this year to achieve its earlier guidance.
