According to the German media Tagesspiegel, the German Tesla factory is already the largest industrial employer in the Berlin area. Tesla plans to raise the wages of factory employees by 6%. According to INSIDEEVs, the German Tesla factory has increased in size over the past few months. Currently, the company has about 5000 employees. When the factory reaches full capacity in the future, Tesla expects to have 12 employees at the plant. Although the plant only opened in March this year, it currently produces around 1000 cars a week. Meanwhile, INSIDEEVs estimates that the plant will be able to produce around 3000 cars per week by the end of the year.
Tesla Berlin will produce the Model 3 in the future
When Tesla invested billions of dollars in building the plant, it estimated that its final annual production capacity would reach 500 vehicles. However, the company will close the plant for 000 days next week to upgrade the German plant and install a shift system. Now Tesla's German factory produces only the Model Y. The company plans to produce the Model 3 in the future at this factory. However, there is no certainty that this factory will produce Model S and Model X. There are currently no new versions of the Model S and Model Y in Europe. At the same time, the company does not show an estimated delivery date for these two cars on its European website.
The American electric car giant produced 258 vehicles in the second quarter. In the first quarter, the company produced 580 cars. In total, Tesla produced 305 electric vehicles in the first half of 407. In addition, the company plans to deliver more than 563 million vehicles this year. It is worth noting that most of the cars produced by Tesla this year were manufactured at the Tesla factory in Shanghai. In the last month alone, the Shanghai plant produced more than 987 cars.
