How long is the delivery on a Tesla Model 3?

I know my wife just ordered my Tesla Model 3, and I know it's supposed to be a gift, but I’m dying to know when it’s supposed to get here! How long is the delivery time on a Tesla 3?

You can expect to wait approximately one to two months for your Tesla Model 3 delivery, depending on several factors.
Unfortunately, there isn’t an exact time frame on when you should expect your car to be delivered. Delivery dates change depending on the model, time of year, and other factors. 
Here are some tips that can help you better estimate your delivery time frame:
  • Factory or custom: If your vehicle is a new inventory order rather than a
    custom order
    , it will generally take less time to be delivered.
  • Quarterly cycle: Tesla deliveries play heavily on a quarterly manufacturing cycle. This means that the majority of Tesla inventory is delivered in the last 5 or 6 weeks of any fiscal quarter, regardless of when it was ordered. If the car ordered does not have any matching inventory that quarter, then the vehicle will be delivered toward the end of the next quarter.
  • Supply chain issues: Inflation and supply chain issues can slow down the delivery process significantly.
Note that the person who made the order for the car will receive frequent delivery updates. 
So, your wife is likely going to receive a series of emails beginning immediately after she orders. These updates will eventually include a delivery appointment that will be able to specify when your car will be delivered!
