Overview
- Plant manager André Thierig told the German Press Agency that recent sales data prompted an upward revision to third- and fourth-quarter production, without specifying new targets.
- The Grünheide site builds only the Model Y, has produced about 500,000 units since opening, and added right-hand-drive output to reach additional markets.
- Giga Berlin supplies more than 30 destinations worldwide, including all European countries as well as Canada, Taiwan and the Middle East, with recent shipments redirected to Canada.
- European registrations have slid sharply in 2025—about 43% to 44% across the EU year to date and roughly 58% in Germany—even as some northern markets show pockets of strength.
- The factory recently evacuated after battery cells fell from a conveyor and sparked a small fire, and no injuries were reported.
