Tesla deliveries rise 25% as Europeans seek escape from high fuel prices July 2 (Reuters) - Tesla beat Wall Street expectations for second-quarter deliveries on Thursday, as recovering demand in Europe offset subdued demand in North America and intense competition from Chinese automakers. The company delivered 480,126 vehicles in the April-June period, up about 25% from a year earlier. Analysts on average had expected deliveries of 402,776 vehicles, according to Visible Alpha data.
