Until a few years ago the world's leading car manufacturers They "killed" each other to see which was the one that sold the most cars per year. However, the successive economic crises and the electrification of the automotive sector have turned this race upside down. Now it is no longer "in" to sell more, but to make more money for each unit sold. We have seen the proof of this change with the economic results that they have presented for 2021.
However, in this issue there is an important but we cannot ignore. For a model to be profitable and make money with it, it has to be sold in large quantitiesOtherwise, its technology and all the processes that it entails would be at a loss. Well, this is the "story" in which Elon Musk is "muddy" with his Tesla Model Y. Do you know what the owner of the Yankee firm says? That he will soon surpass all mighty Corolla…
Elon Musk assures that the Tesla Model Y will outsell the Toyota Corolla in the year 2023 worldwide...
In case you did not know The Toyota Corolla is the best-selling car of all time.. Throughout its long history it has exceeded 50 million units sold and it seems that it does not get off its podium. In fact, despite the crisis in recent years, it has maintained its position as the best-selling car in the world. However, the bombast of Elon Musk doubts that the next financial year 2023 will revalidate such a title.
Apparently, Musk indicated at the last shareholders' meeting that the Model Y will soon exceed one million units sold in a single year worldwide. In fact, he dared to indicate that by 2023 its figures will exceed 1,2 million units. And you will ask yourselves, based on what data does he dare to give this news? The answer is very simple: The Tesla Model Y is the best-selling electric car in the world in 2022.
However, beating the Toyota Corolla does not seem like an easy task, since since 1997 it has remained the model with the most sales worldwide. Furthermore, we cannot ignore that Tesla sold a total of 2021 units throughout the past year 936.222. All in all, Elon Musk told his shareholders that once the factories in Berlin and Texas are at full capacity and the logistical problems are solved, they will be able to improve their sales...
In fact, Elon Musk dares to indicate that by the time 2022 has come to an end they will have sold more than 1,3 million units worldwide of all their models. All in all, the idea of surpassing the Toyota Corolla seems unreal, although if we see the evolution of Tesla in recent years, the same in the Japanese firm would have to think about how to stand up to them so as not to be surpassed by "some rookies"...
