The next step is to map that production to factories/models at least up to say 2026.
2022 – 1.5 M
2023 – 2.25 M
Do you think that the Model 3 will be updated and will get a Casting chassis like the Model Y?My suggestion for the next phase of expansion would be:
But I am mainly going to count Berlin/Austin Model 3 and Shanghai Model 2C in 2024 numbers
- Berlin - Model 3 (2) - Construction 2022-2023
- Austin - Model 3 (2) - Construction 2022-2023
Yes, that is what I think they will do at Berlin and Austin...Do you think that the Model 3 will be updated and will get a Casting chassis like the Model Y?
Elon mentioned the ChInese team and German team both designing cars..Additionaly, I am puzzle about the Model 2C (China) and Model 2E (Europe): Would they be different models?
Yes, I expect that...Will also Austin and Berlin get a seat factory, and other stamping and miscellenous in house manufacturing parts, directly inside the new factories?

I think the 50% + growth over the next few years is possible, indeed necessary if Tesla are to reach the 20m/yr target by 2030. When I try to solve for the various constraints it seems to me that Tesla will need to continue at >50% growth until 2024. Thereafter the rate of growth can taper off though the annual quantity added continues to increase until the annual add reaches approx 3m/yr in 2028. Obviously cell supply needs to keep pace with this. In addition to that one needs to continue build-out of the existing factories, as well as probably breaking ground on two new factories each year - my view is that this will be necessary as only so much can be achieved on any given set of workfaces in one location for a variety of reasons. Alongside this I think that in the period 2022-2025 they will need to introduce new platforms at a rate of min 1 / max 2 per year, plus of course managing the release of any model-derivatives that are based off the platforms. Only if they can achieve all this do they hit the stated target, but that is of course what we need to achieve or else humanity is in for a very rough ride.Bottom line....
My hypothetical number crunching exercise concluded 2 new factory sites in 2023 (Mexico, China) and 1 new factory site in 2024 (Europe).
I was able to redevelop Fremont - 2025-2027.
But obviously the assumptions are hard to pin down / verify.
What is interesting is that 50% compound growth is a very hard target.
Do you think that the Model 3 will be updated and will get a Casting chassis like the Model Y?
- If so, the Model 3 could then share the same assembly lane than the Model Y, both in Berlin and Austin.
- If not, I doubt that a Model 3 specific assembly lane will be created in Berlin and Austin. The reason been that the Casting makes the assembly line smaller.
Honestly, I doubt that the Model 3 will get a Casting, so the Moel 3 will continue to be build only in Fremont and Shanghai.
There is also only a remote possibility to get the Model 2 to be imported, or to be build in US, but really I doubt about it.
Additionaly, I am puzzle about the Model 2C (China) and Model 2E (Europe): Would they be different models?
I think I fact that there will be a Model 2 "Hatchback" and a Model Z "SUV".
I'm glad someone else attempted this exercise, I did recognise the need to flip my assumptions and try with more new factory locations earlier.I think the 50% + growth over the next few years is possible, indeed necessary if Tesla are to reach the 20m/yr target by 2030.

Please correct me if I'm wrong, won't GigaTexas also have a park open to the public?Gigafactory Texas? (Terafactory?)
Will be producing chubby cells only
Cybertruck from 2021 with chubby
Roadster from 2021/22 with cubby
Semi? from 2021? with chubby
MY (using 2170s from Nevada) from 2022?
M2 from 2023
Please fill in the gaps.
Tesla Gigafactory Austin is going to be 'ecological paradise' open to the publicPlease correct me if I'm wrong, won't GigaTexas also have a park open to the public?
It also has some amazing Crossfit locations within a short drive!
