Tesla raised a lot of questions after the losses in the first quarter, but when we see the sales results in the U.S. for the past month, it turns out that sales doubled year-over-year.

In April, Tesla sold some 11,925 electric cars (InsideEVs’ estimation), which is 98% more than a year ago.

Growth of sales is driven by the Model 3, but the Model S/X could also rebound after the new upgraded version was introduced.
