Tesla CEO Elon Musk flew to Germany on Friday to verify in on Giga Berlin, and whereas he was there he made an enormous announcement. In accordance with feedback made by Musk whereas chatting with workers, the manufacturing facility will construct Tesla’s €25,000 next-generation automotive.
Quickly after Giga Berlin opened final 12 months, Tesla was already planning to broaden the manufacturing facility, figuring out the method will take longer than anticipated as a result of quantity of bureaucratic crimson tape and different points that had been encountered whereas constructing the primary section. These plans have not too long ago taken a step ahead as they went to public debate, with Tesla hoping to have all of that out of the way in which and begin the challenge in early 2024.
In accordance with the plans launched final 12 months, the growth will improve Giga Berlin’s manufacturing capability from 500,000 to over 1,000,000 autos per 12 months, and improve its battery manufacturing capability from 50GWh to 100GWh per 12 months. After Musk’s go to to the manufacturing facility on Friday, we now know what the expanded manufacturing facility will produce.
Whereas chatting with workers at Giga Berlin, Musk introduced the manufacturing facility will produce the corporate’s €25,000 subsequent technology automotive. (In case you’re questioning, €25,000 = US26,800)

This clearly gained’t occur any time quickly. No timeline was offered by Musk, however because the manufacturing facility growth hasn’t even began but, it is going to seemingly be no less than 2 to three years earlier than we see Tesla’s next-generation automotive rolling out of Giga Berlin.
Tesla’s €25,000 automotive has been talked about for some time. We not too long ago obtained a number of particulars about it from Walter Isaacson’s biography of Musk, during which he revealed it is going to have a futuristic design, very similar to that of the Cybertruck. This next-generation automotive was initially deliberate to be constructed first at Giga Mexico, however these plans modified earlier this 12 months. Giga Texas will now be the primary manufacturing facility to supply the $25,000 automotive, as this can enable firm executives to maintain an in depth eye on the challenge, as a substitute of getting to journey to Mexico to make sure all the pieces goes easily.
