The company delivered more than 486,000 EVs in the third quarter, down from last year's record but moving in a positive direction.

Q3 deliveries trail record pace

Third-quarter deliveries exceeded 486,000 EVs, marking a decline from the record level reached in the same period last year. The shortfall reflects a cooling from the previous year's peak, when deliveries hit an all-time high.

Momentum points in a positive direction

Despite the year-over-year decline, the delivery trajectory is described as moving in a positive direction, suggesting the automaker's EV volumes are improving rather than continuing to slide. The figure underscores a gradual recovery in EV demand after the record-setting pace of a year earlier.

The claim that the company delivered more than 486,000 EVs in the third quarter — down from last year's record but moving in a positive direction — is True.
