The number is a big improvement from Q2, when Tesla delivered 90,650 cars. That quarter was particularly tough for Tesla, as the company was in partial lockdown due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

The company's previous record for most cars delivered in one quarter was Q4 2019, when Tesla delivered 112,000 cars.

Tesla CEO Elon Musk hinted at these results in September, as he encouraged employees to try their best and achieve a record quarter. The record-breaking quarter will surely help Elon's chances to unlock the next tranche of his massive, $55 billion compensation plan.

Tesla will announce its Q3 earnings later in October.
