I also prefer the logic to underpromise and overdeliver but this estimation for Deutsche Bank seems to be overly conservative. I believe it's safe to expect at least 15k deliveries per month just with Onvo and potentially could be even much more than that.

The Porsche 911 has been the company’s most-iconic model since the 1960s and fans have historically been adamantly against the manufacturer tampering with the recipe.

300,000 per year = 5,770 per week. NIO delivered 4,400 last week. Half of that figure is probably ES6. I don't think Onvo L60 will deliver less than 2,000 per week. Analyst is discounting either Onvo's future success or NIO's current momentum.

It's CdA that matters not just Cd, and that is roughly 20% higher. Also the new Model 3 has a Cd of 0.219 not 0.23, so there is another 5% there. Apology time?
