Another accident occurred at the Tesla factory in Germany.

On May 10, there were reports of a group of masked men trying to forcibly break into a Tesla factory in the Glenheide area, near Berlin, Germany.

Hundreds of demonstrators, dressed in black uniforms and black hats and covering their faces with masks, clashed with police over the first fence around the factory to protect against wildlife.

Hundreds of police officers defended the factory with riot-rigging batons and water cannons, eventually arresting several demonstrators.

It is reported that more than 1,000 people registered to participate in the protest that stormed Tesla's factory, and these people are all opposed to Tesla's plan to expand the factory, which they believe is damaging the local environment.

In addition, the group of protesters has set up a camp near Tesla's Brandenburg Gigafactory in Berlin, and people are constantly joining the protest camp.

According to public information, Tesla's Berlin Gigafactory is Tesla's first Gigafactory in Europe. The plant is Tesla's main production base in Europe and mainly produces Model Y cars.

According to Tesla's report, the plant has the capacity to produce 375,000 Model Y vehicles per year, accounting for nearly a quarter of Tesla's total global production.

In May 2022, Tesla submitted an application to the city of Glenheide to purchase an additional 100 hectares of land east of its Berlin factory, expanding the plant by one-third for the construction of a freight terminal, logistics area, and parking spaces.

Tesla's expansion plans have not been well received by the locals. In an unofficial poll, 77 percent of residents in the area opposed Tesla's expansion plans.

The residents believe the expansion could lead to the deforestation of 250 acres of the nature reserve and could also affect the water reserve.

In addition to this, Tesla's factories can also increase noise pollution and traffic stress, affecting their quality of life.

However, Tesla and local leaders seem to have ignored the people's calls and insisted on expanding Tesla's factories.

On March 5 of this year, Tesla's Berlin factory was also set on fire by extreme environmentalists, who set fire to a substation near the Tesla factory, causing the factory to be forced to shut down.

The arson organizers issued an open letter saying they wanted to completely destroy the gigafactory and root out techno-fascist forces like Elon Musk, and Tesla was running out of resources by building 6,000 killing machine SUVs and monster trucks every week.

Subsequently, Musk responded on the social media platform X, "These are either the stupidest eco-terrorists on the planet or the puppets of those who do not hold environmental goals." Stopping the production of electric vehicles, instead of fossil fuel vehicles, is stupid. ”

最后一句"愚蠢至极",他还特意用德语写道:"is extremely stupid."。

In addition, Tesla's sales in Europe began to decline, and in the first quarter of this year, Tesla's new car registrations in the EU fell by 4.7%, according to the European Automobile Manufacturers Association.

The decline in sales, coupled with the intensification of the conflict between the locals and Tesla's Berlin factory, has caused great trouble to Musk.

It remains to be seen what Musk will do next with regard to Tesla's Berlin factory.
