Tesla seems to be in never-ending “production hell.” But this week, CEO Elon Musk told employees in a letter that the company was getting back on track, despite falling short of its most recent target of producing 2,500 Model 3 per week by the end of March.

“It has been extremely difficult to pass the 2,000 cars per week rate for Model 3, but we are finally there,” he wrote in an email sent early Monday (April 2), obtained by Electrek. “If things go as planned today, we will comfortably exceed that number over a seven-day period!” That would be a significant jump from the approximately 1,200 Model 3s per week that Tesla was producing in late March while dealing with assembly line automation problems. Tesla had not replied to inquiries as of publication time.
