Tesla vehicles are seen for sale at a Tesla facility in Fremont, California, U.S., May 23, 2023.
Shares of the EV maker reversed course to rise marginally after dropping nearly 3% following the news of the delivery miss.
Tesla has also been cutting prices aggressively to counter the effect of a slowing EV market, while fending off competition from upstarts and legacy players.
Meanwhile, electric-pickup maker Rivian Automotive (RIVN.O) reported third-quarter deliveries above analysts' estimates and reaffirmed its annual production target of 52,000 vehicles.
Deliveries of Tesla's premium vehicles, Model S and Model X, rose to about 16,000 units in the third quarter.
