Germany’s Brandenburg Minister of Economics Jörg Steinbach said that Tesla’s battery factory at the Berlin Gigafactory has been put into operation. Steinbach said Tesla only produces individual battery modules at the battery factory at the Gigafactory in Berlin, which is different from the company’s original plan. The outside world believes that this should be Tesla considering the preferential tax policy of the United States, so it prefers to build a Texas Gigafactory battery factory.

Tesla: Tesla has seen a surge in U.S. orders due to price cuts and a new $7,500 U.S. federal tax credit, and the Model Y in the U.S. has been sold out this quarter, running out of capacity, and will not be produced again until April, but there are still some specific inventory configurations in some markets. The Model Y is currently Tesla’s most produced model. Tesla updated the expected delivery of the Model Y to April to June 2023. In the meantime, Model 3 production and delivery is still available this month, with deliveries expected in February-March 2023.

The Model 3 and Model Y produced by Tesla’s Shanghai Gigafactory are already being exported to Thailand and have begun deliveries to consumers in Thailand.

Tesla’s US official website shows that the price of the Model Y high-performance version has been raised by $500 to $58,490, and the price of the long-life version has not changed. Earlier this month, the Model Y long-range version was raised by $1,500 to $54,990 in the United States, and the high-performance version was raised by $1,000 to $57,990.

Tesla decided to increase the average weekly production of its Shanghai plant in February and March to nearly 20,000 units in order to meet higher market demand. (Reuters)

On Tesla’s (NASDAQ:TSLA) fourth-quarter earnings call, Musk and Tesla were asked if the Cybertruck was still scheduled to go into production in early 2023, and Musk replied, “We do want to start production sometime this summer, but I always downplay the start of production because it’s always very slow.” Musk noted that mass production of the Cybertruck will begin in 2024, later than previously expected by the end of 2023.

Musk said Tesla could produce and sell 2 million vehicles in 2023 in the absence of external interference.
