Street. We start with tesla because the Electric Car Pioneer is charging ahead despite the Global Supply chain crisis. Tesla made record sales of 13. 8 billion dollars in the three months to september better than wall street was expecting and up 57 per cent on the same quarter last year. Profits quadrupled and car deliveries also hit record levels. But telsas warning that chip shortages, Energy Blackouts and port congestion are stopping factories running at full speed. And that could hit growth in the coming months as Samira Hussain reports from new york. Tesla reports from new york. Has bucked the trend of other tesla has bucked the trend of other car makers who have been reporting profits because of record Consumer Demand despite the global shortage of semiconductors mean they can charge of the vehicles that they are selling. But those have not been able to produce better overall Sales Numbers for cars of their Supply Constraints but tesla has been able to set a Company Record selling more cars in the last three months than it ever has before. And that is despite Supply Chain Challenges and tip shortages. Compared to other alternators it is actually been better able to handle the shortages especially with semiconductors. At that quartet it produced 238,000 vehicles and can deliver more than 240,000 vehicles. Of course, The Big Question is how the company navigates the next three months. The Supply Chain Disruptions are showing no signs of abating. Steve fowler is editor in chief of auto express magazine. Good morning. Youve been looking at the tesla numbers so give us your take and how they are doing currently . The . Give us your take and how they are doing currently . Are doing currently . They have done well. Are doing currently . They have done well, havent are doing currently . They have done well, havent they . Done well, havent they . Theyve taken advantage of the situation the market or other car makers have not been able to supply cows and they have on the thing we have to remember is we talk about tesla is a car company but that is a bit of a mistake. As my Technology Company that happens to make cars and the way they have adjusted their production and things to deal with the chip crisis, for example, the Car Business Works are glacial speeds and because they postproduction the chip makers have moved on. Tesla have had to adjust so they can say that the Regulators Chips and that is another clever ways that test there seems be. Di test there seems be. Dc affecting test there seems be. Dc affecting chinas been quite critical introduction there overtaking the factory in california but the ones elsewhere in europe could take some time to really get up to speed. They are running about the future headwinds, and they . And they seem to matter that under delivering when it comes to timescales that resell for that but it will come. There is nothing more important the new batteries that we know there are chinese factories are producing cars very well. And because coming out of china seem to be very well built indeed and that reduces warranty claims. Where does it sit in terms of competition because at that first mover advantage and a Cult Following that competitors have alternatives now so where does it stand the point of your competition . fix, it stand the point of your competition . It stand the point of your competition . It stand the point of your cometition . � , competition . A very podcast has a net half competition . A very podcast has a get half an competition .

A very podcast has a get half an even tougher a get half an even tougher because competition is catching up because competition is catching up now and they dont think that a car company. Their products ahead of the game and they keep ahead by the other Car Companies are trying very hard to think of themselves as Software First rather than traditional engineering first and playing catch up. The new models tested in the uk this week. A big car and it is help towards the big Profit Numbers and keeps ahead of the latest viable but there are more coming and others will think more like tesla and it will be tougherfor them to more like tesla and it will be tougher for them to stay ahead. Thank you. To the uk now where the government has agreed a Free Trade Agreement with new zealand. Prime minister borisjohnson and his new zealand counterpart Jacinda Ardern agreed the deal in a video call on wednesday after 16 months of negotiations.

Lets turn to the soaring cost of energy because its high on the agenda for European Union leaders as they start a 2 day summit in brussels. The eu is heavily dependent on imported energy much of it natural gas from russia.

Other countries are saying this is a temporary situation might provide short term fixes at lets not change the rule of the game now because this is not required. They say the situation will not arise and we know will use a lot less energy in spring and summer there be in the same position this Time Next Year . And what extent, as you say, germany is not on board, will this make any progress in the next few days . I think saying this is a temporary situation which resulted in spring and we have the tools available to deal with the shorter impacts and the tools to protect the most vulnerable citizens in the situation i think it is sensible. Panties are several tools to intervene and protect vulnerable families that enterprises the client still works and this is exactly what countries like spain, italy france have already been doing over the last weeks and that is exactly what we do focusing on poland and other countries are linking somehow the Current Situation to the Energy Transition and the need to pay spain package for the European Green deal and this is not the case. This is a situation that is related to a number of different conditions and that the green transition hotel. We do appreciate your perspective on what is happening. Thank you. Thank you.

Thursday is going to feel chilly especially when we contrast it with the temperatures we had at the start of the week, when we were getting Daytime Highs in the high teens, even the low 20s. And it will feel all the more cold because we� ll pick up a keen northerly wind. The cold air plunging in behind this Weather Front, sinking south overnight. Ahead of it, some heavy rain which pull off into the continent. And then, through thursday daytime, we open the floodgates for cold air to sweep all the way south through the uk. We� ll start the day with some cloud and rain to the south, the Weather Front pulling away, making way for lots of sunshine come the afternoon but there will be some showers to the northwest, and they will be wintry across the hills and mountains of scotland. The wind a notable feature, gales possible down the north sea coast. These are the temperatures that you� d see on the thermometer but, factor in the wind, those temperatures along the north sea coast will feel more like 4 5 celsius. We continue with showers streaming into the north and west as we move overnight thursday and into friday. Quite a chilly night, as well in sheltered eastern spots, there could be a patchy frost with sitting in quite cold air, but the strength of the wind will protect many from actually seeing bits of frost. Through thursday daytime sorry, friday daytime, though, the winds will start to ease back a little as a ridge of High Pressure builds in from the atlantic. Still some showersjust managing to sneak into the top of that ridge, a bit of cloud under it, as well perhaps not the faultless blue skies of thursday, but it should just feel a little bit milder because the wind won� t be quite as cutting. But, for things to really become milder, we need to get to the weekend, and it� s all about the change in wind direction. As we say goodbye to this ridge of High Pressure, it pushes away to the east and we start to pick up a south westerly. For saturday, i think, actually, a lot of fine weather across the uk. There� ll be some Cloud Closing in to the west, and we will see some rain for Northern Ireland by the end of the day. But the temperatures lifting up, we should hit the mid teens, but it will feel so much warmer because we� re moving back into a more atlantic airstream. Sunday, greater chance of some showers just about anywhere across the uk sheltered eastern areas favoured for the driest and brightest weather. Temperatures possibly up to 15 16 to the south.
