The Asian bomb has exploded, Tesla Giga Shanghai is shipping cars abroad.
Tesla’s cars are fast, but they’re snails compared to the team that built the electric carmaker’s factory in SHANGHAI, CHINA—the company’s first Gigafactory outside of the United States.
The project signals ambition at Tesla that goes beyond China. CEO Elon Musk has described the Shanghai factory as the automaker’s “TEMPLATE FOR FUTURE GROWTH.” Tesla Gigafactory Shanghai could very well be Tesla’s ace-in-the-hole this year, thanks to the rapid ramp of its Model 3 and Model Y production.So HOW STRATEGICALLY IMPORTANT IS GIGA SHANGHAI FOR TESLA?Tesla recently said that it has shifted its [focus?] from Fremont Factory to Gigafactory Shanghai, and Tesla’s July results in China are confirming that.
“Due to strong U.S. demand and global average cost optimization, we have completed the transition of Gigafactory Shanghai as the primary vehicle export hub.”
While Gigafactory Shanghai was originally only supposed to produce vehicles for LOCAL DEMAND, Tesla surprised itself with how fast it was able to ramp up production at the plant.
The automaker achieved an annualized production capacity of 450,000 electric vehicles at Gigafactory Shanghai within two years of starting production at the new factory.
It enabled Tesla to start exporting vehicles from the factory to other markets – reducing the exportation load out of the FREMONT FACTORY, which can now focus more on local demand.
This shift is becoming clear with the release of TESLA’S JULY RESULTS in China.

Name it, chump...
Those subsidies have been more than paid back.
Now he is paying the CCP back and screwing American workers.
How many slaves will he have?
Plus more companies are hopping on the electric car bandwagon.
Soon this is going to hit the oil and terror exporters like Saudi Arabia and Iran
Blame California. He built a factory there and Democrats f-ed it up. He’s building factories in TX and NV but that took longer with more red tape than Shanghai.
I don’t blame Musk for taking government money- if he doesn’t, some one else will.
It’s the stupid government rules that create that environment to begin with, and stupid government rules that made it cheaper to do this in China.
It is not Musk’s fault for taking advantage of the environment we live in.
Denial just ain’t a river in Egypt. Musk is a globalist. He could give a sh*t about America and the American worker. He responds to the highest bidder.
Earlier builds are easily lasting >300,000. Not unreasonable to expect major redesigns, meeting extensive testing, to last 1,000,000 as specified - especially as EVs have far fewer moving parts, no extreme heat sources, and no pounding impulses.
Not sure how you figure “grifter” for a guy who built a million cars of high reputation and rapidly growing demand.
On US Taxpayers’ monies.
you’re stupid
LOL. You just can’t handle the truth.
LOL ANGRY TEDLIM.
Your legislators threw the money at him.
And he more than paid it back.
This.🙄
