Commenting on the data, fund manager Gary Black said after 11 weeks into the quarter, with only two weeks left, Tesla’s China third-quarter registrations are on track for their best quarter ever. Quarter-to-date period, the number was up 20% year-over-year and 26% higher than in the first quarter, he added.

On the flipside, data released by European Automobile Manufacturers Association showed that Tesla volumes in Europe dropped 36% year-over-year to 21,701 vehicles in August. “The electric car market is now on a continual downward trajectory,” the ACEA said in a statement.
