Tesla made in Germany! Tesla Berlin factory first trams out of the factory!
After two years of construction, production was started on Tuesday, March 22, 2022 at the first Tesla European electric car factory in Berlin, and the first 30 cars produced at the plant have now been delivered, and Tesla CEO Elon Musk drove the first Tesla produced in Germany. The establishment of the Tesla factory in Berlin is significant: for Musk, it is a signal that climate change is tackled with green energy, and for the current German Chancellor Olaf Scholz, it is a signal that East Germany can successfully develop industry. In November 2019, Musk announced a €1 billion investment in the construction of a plant near Berlin, with construction officially starting in February 2020.
It is understood that the plant covers an area of 227,000 square meters, about the size of 30 football fields; the plant is the most modern of Tesla's five production sites in the United States, China and Germany. According to the Tesla factory, it takes ten hours to complete a Tesla car, the car moves every 45 seconds on the assembly line, and the workshop has more than 400 robots involved in manufacturing.
