Yes, because the drop in sales relates to the retooling of the Model Y production liens in all 4 factories at once: Fremont, Austin, Berlin and Shanghai.

In Europe, deliveries re-started on March 10 after the official launch in mid January.

In China where they move faster, the sales are picking up as expected. They might end the quarter with stable sales YoY despite the factory downtime. https://x.com/Tslachan/status/1904464265303699919

They stopped selling the Model Y (>65% of their sales) because the production lines where down for retooling.

What did you expect?
