>Tesla sold more cars in the US that Mercedes and BMW this summer? How many media reported that?

Please, that was one month of backlog deliveries (July, 16,000 deliveries) and only in the US. 16, Nobody expects that Tesla manufactures 16,000 Model 3's per month.

Meanwhile Mercedes sells 30,000 C-Class Saloon and Estate models per month globally. In the US Mercedes and BMW each keep delivering 12,000 or so vehicles per month in the same category as Tesla models are.

You're right, because August is the month during which Tesla surpassed both BMW and Mercedes. We're in September so how can there be more than a month? Both BMW and Mercedes US car sales are falling hard: https://www.businesswire.com/news/home/20180904005710/en/Mer..., https://www.businesswire.com/news/home/20180904005748/en/BMW...

Is there something going on with tariffs?

It was well publicized that the President doesn't want people buying Mercedes.

What are you talking about? They are sustainably producing 5000/week now, and have backlog for the next 1.5 years at least.
