Tesla late Wednesday reported mixed fourth-quarter results, with revenue slightly below Wall Street expectations, but injected some optimism in its production outlook for 2023.

As for outlook, Tesla kept more or less intact the same language it has kept for several past quarters, with a crucial difference.
Tesla said it plans to grow its manufacturing capacity "as quickly as possible," about 50% average annual growth over a "multi-year horizon" in deliveries. For 2023, however, it expected to "remain ahead" of that long-term goal and reach 1.8 million vehicles a year.
Gross automotive margins were 25.9%, a bide decline from the last year, Tesla said, and the 27.9% figure recorded over the third quarter, owing to big price cuts in the U.S. and China as well as costs linked to the ramp-up of production in Berlin and Texas.
"Cybertruck remains on track to begin production later this year at Gigafactory Texas," the company accounced during in its fourth quarter earnings.
