Sources delete related content Tesla: The news that the second factory is about to settle in Shenyang is untrue

Tencent Auto News On February 14, in response to the information that Tesla's second factory in China is about to settle in Shenyang's Dadong District, Tesla related sources said that the news is untrue and "the location has not yet been determined."

On February 12, the WeChat public account of "Liaoning Release" under the General Office of the People's Government of Liaoning Province reprinted the people's network titled "Shenyang Dadong District 'five grasps' at the same time, striving to be the vanguard of revitalization and development", which mentioned that "combined with the urban renewal of the civil official area, open up the industrial development space, and lay the foundation for the landing of tesla and other extraordinarily large new energy vehicle projects." Tencent Auto found that at present, the source Liaoning Release has deleted the relevant content.

It is worth noting that in November last year, in response to a variety of rumors about Tesla's second factory, Tesla's global vice president debunked rumors on his personal Weibo, "Tesla is very honored to contribute to the development of China's new energy industry, and will continue to firmly increase investment in China." Recently, I have received many media inquiries about the second factory, and I cannot reply to them one by one. Respectfully, the current information on the Internet about the location of Tesla's second factory is not true. ”

Previously, Musk said that Tesla aims to achieve global annual sales of 20 million vehicles in 2030, so it is only a matter of time before Tesla expands. Judging from the recent official response, Tesla only denied the site selection information, and did not deny whether the second factory was built.

According to the financial report, Tesla achieved revenue of $53.823 billion in 2021, an increase of 71% year-on-year; net profit attributable to shareholders reached $5.519 billion, an increase of 665% year-on-year. Last year, Tesla's revenue in the Chinese market was $13.844 billion, a sharp increase of 107.8% year-on-year, continuing to maintain a triple-digit growth rate. (Text/Tencent Auto Xie Wan)
