Elon Musk 'Likes To Talk Big Numbers' But His Growth Target For Tesla Is Not 'Realistic,' Says Analyst
China has an exceptional ability to manufacture low-cost EVs while being financially successful, Brauer said, while adding that even if Tesla releases a lower-cost EV, it will likely not have the same profit levels as BYD and other rival Chinese EV makers.Karl Brauer of iSeeCars on Friday said that he does not believe Tesla Inc. (NASDAQ:TSLA) can achieve Elon Musk's target of 20% to 30% sales growth in 2025 even with a lower-priced model.
iSeeCars的Karl Brauer在週五表示，他不相信特斯拉公司（納斯達克：TSLA）能夠在2025年實現埃隆·馬斯克設定的20%到30%的銷售增長，即使推出了較便宜的車型。
What Happened: "The ramp-up time just to produce an all-new model is going to take longer... Elon likes to talk big numbers, he is famous for that but I am not sure that's realistic," Brauer said in an appearance on CNBC.
發生了什麼："推出全新車型的生產準備時間將會更長……埃隆喜歡談論大數字，他因這點而聞名，但我不確定這是否現實，" Brauer在CNBC的一次節目中說道。
Tesla, however, needs an affordable model, the analyst said, while adding that the company's latest addition to its lineup- the Cybertruck- was too expensive to create a major surge in sales.
然而，分析師表示，特斯拉需要一款價格合理的車型，並補充說公司最新加入的產品——Cybertruck——價格過高，無法帶來顯著的銷售增長。
China has an exceptional ability to manufacture low-cost EVs while being financially successful, Brauer said, while adding that even if Tesla releases a lower-cost EV, it will likely not have the same profit levels as BYD and other rival Chinese EV makers.
Brauer表示，中國在製造低成本電動車方面具有卓越的能力，同時還能保持財務上的成功，並補充說，即使特斯拉推出低成本電動車，其利潤水平也可能無法與比亞迪及其他競爭對手中國電動車製造商相媲美。
Why It Matters: The year 2024 marks the first year that Tesla's annual deliveries have fallen (1.1%) as compared to the previous year. In 2023, Tesla delivered 1,808,581 vehicles around the globe.
重要性：2024年是特斯拉年交付量首次下降（下降1.1%）的一年，相較於前一年。在2023年，特斯拉在全球交付了1,808,581輛汽車。
To mark a growth over last year, the company had to deliver at least 514,926 vehicles in the three months through the end of December. However, the company could not even breach the 500,000 target.
爲了標誌着去年增長，公司在截至12月底的三個月內必須交付至少514,926輛汽車。然而，公司甚至無法突破500,000輛的目標。
The company reported on Thursday that it delivered just 495,570 BEVs in the three months, below analyst estimates, raising doubts about the company's future sales.
公司在週四報告稱，在這三個月內僅交付了495,570輛電池電動車（BEV），低於分析師的預期，這引發了對公司未來銷售的質疑。
During Tesla's third-quarter earnings in October, the company said that it is preparing to launch new vehicles, including more affordable models, starting in the first half of 2025. The lower-cost offering is expected to revive the company's aging car lineup and drive sales growth.
在特斯拉10月份的第三季度業績中，公司表示正在準備推出新車型，包括在2025年上半年推出更多便宜的車型。預期低成本的產品將復興公司的老舊汽車系列，推動銷售增長。
