Seeking Alpha: What Tesla's Delivery Miss Means for its 2018

Galileo Russell, author at Seeking Alpha, discusses Tesla missing delivery targets for the Model 3 again and what that means for company's goals for 2018. The company set a production target of 2,500 Model 3s a week by the end of Q1. Russell believes that is attainable, given the progress in production made between Q3 and Q4, even though the company missed its delivery target. He discusses Tesla's competition as car companies increase their offerings of electric cars, noting that 2018 is a make-or-break year for the company, especially with the amount of debt coming due.
