Gigafactory Berlin is Tesla Inc.'s TSLA first European production facility, located in Grünheide, Germany. The facility was announced by CEO Elon Musk in 2019, with construction beginning in 2020.
In a similar timeframe, Tesla has been ramping up vehicle production at Gigafactory Texas in Austin.
Tesla posted on Twitter that Gigafactory Berlin produced 3,000 Model Y cars last week, which showed the factory's continued progress in ramping up production speed.
Gigafactory Texas recently completed a similar feat.
Tesla’s Model Y has become the company’s most popular model, and the production rate of 3,000 per day at a single factory is a major milestone. The Model Y is a mid-size all-electric SUV with a range of up to 335 miles and a 0-to-60 time as low as 3.5 seconds.
The Model Y has proven to be a popular choice for customers looking for an electric vehicle with a good range and performance. With the increased production rate, Tesla is now able to complete orders more effectively.
