Tesla wants to expand production, introduce new working shifts and at the same time improve the current pace of manufacturing. Due to these expansion works, Gigafactory Berlin will have to stop activity for a few days.

Tesla recently posted production and delivery numbers for Q2 which were 15% less than what the EV maker delivered in Q1 2022. However, with the ramp of Giga Texas & Giga Berlin, Tesla is poised for record production for the second half of the year.

New leaks suggest Tesla has achieved an incredible production ramp at the company's newest facility in Austin, Texas. According to the leaks, Tesla has already reached a production rate of between 2000 and 5000 Model Y's a week at the facility.

After starting production at Giga Texas with the refreshed Model Y with 4680 cells and a structural battery pack, today, Tesla has also started selling a second Model Y variant from the Austin facility. The new Model Y Long Range comes with the 2170 cells and updated interior features.

Tesla Giga Berlin continues to prepare for mass production, although it is currently still a "money burner" as per Elon Musk´s comments, due to its relatively low production volumes. The company has not managed - like every other automaker - to stabilize its supply chain issues yet; but still, that is not the entire picture: Giga Berlin wasn't offering salaries lucrative enough in order to quickly fill its vacancies, but Tesla has already taken notice and is offering more euros for the same job.

According to new sources, Tesla has begun selling a second variant of the refreshed Model Y with 4680 cells & structural battery pack. The new vehicle, produced in Giga Texas, is a Model Y Long Range and starts $9,500 cheaper than the Long Range Model Y produced at Tesla's Fremont California pant.

At his recent appearance at the Qatar Economic Forum, Elon Musk has revealed the surprising reason he supports Dogecoin. According to Musk, he intends to keep supporting Dogecoin as he gets asked by Tesla and SpaceX factory workers to do so.

The pricing directly depends on the driving security level: Tesla expands the offer of the most personalized insurance service available so far, a system that basically collects all your driving data in real time.

Recently Telsa increased the prices of its vehicles. However, this only seems to drive up demand even more. Following the recent price hikes, wait times for some Tesla variants like the Model Y have gotten even longer.

In an update to the company's online configurator, Tesla has once again increased the prices of all its vehicles. The price increases range from $1,000 all the way up to $6,000. The new hikes have also pushed the starting price of the Model Y to $66,000.

In the second part of his interview with Tesla Owners Silicon Valley, Elon Musk had some harsh words for fellow EV makers Rivian & Lucid. In the interview, Musk said "both Rivian and Lucid will go bankrupt" that their path "will end in an intersection with doom" and that "they will end up in the cemetery" unless they change course.

Tesla started refreshed 4680 Model Y deliveries at the Giga Texas opening event. However, initial deliveries were limited to Tesla employees. Later, Tesla widened the pool of individuals that could get the new vehicle to Austin, then the entire state of Texas. Now, Tesla has begun inviting Model Y reservation holders outside Texas to get the refreshed version of the all-electric crossover.

A new Tesla Giga Berlin drone flyover suggests, that Tesla has begun taking deliveries of robots that will be used to produce 4680 battery packs. The new battery pack will power the refreshed Model Y with 4680 cells and a structural battery pack.

Tesla first began delivering the refreshed Model Y at the Giga Texas opening ceremony. Despite having 4680 cells and a structural battery pack, the vehicle only has a 279-mile EPA range. At the time Tesla said the small battery pack was the reason for the limited range. And today we learned that the refreshed Model Y only has a 50KWh battery pack.
