There are rumors floating around that Tesla was very close to their late June target of 5k/wk after their latest line closure. If that so, I think they have turned the corner here.
The steps they are taking sure seem to look more like optimize cash-flow after the R&D is done, rather then a continue full-build to get to max capacity.
Edit since some are downvoting:
Report from Freemont on Model 3 Production line 5/13/2018 (midday):
* 4290- Last 7 days production of M3
* 638- Last 24hrs production of M3
The last line shutdown/retooling had a significant improvement on the speed of the M3 line. Everything is working in conjunction like intended and no bottlenecks anywhere. The upcoming May line shutdown for retooling is going to be much shorter than past, and currently scheduled for May 26-27th weekend. Shutdown could get moved up if production continues to increase at its current rate. The sentiment from the line is 5k sustained is pretty much guaranteed and 6k before end of June is very likely. Bottom line is I was told this is as good as Tesla employees have felt about the M3 production since production began.

- mkirklions 8y ago>Tesla was very close to their late June target of 5k/wk after their latest line closure According to Tesla... Their numbers this entire year have been highly highly questionable.
- InTheArena 8y agonot according to Tesla. This was a leaked report. Bloomberg is also projecting near 4k/week.
