Tesla ended the March quarter with free cash flow of $441 million, down 80 per cent from the same period last year.

“While we continue to execute on innovations to reduce the cost of manufacturing and operations, over time, we expect our hardware-related profits to be accompanied with an acceleration of software-related profits,” the company said.

Tesla delivered 422,875 vehicles in the first quarter.
