That would put current production in the range of something like 25 GWh, which simply can't be true. Overall consumption (including storage and devices) in 2018 is estimated to be around 150 GWh. Tesla alone will probably consume cells with a yearly rate of more than 20 GWh in 2018. I also suppose, that at least 100 GWh of those 150 GWh are used in vehicles of all kind today.
Lithium-ion battery consumption to reach more than 148 GWh in 2018, says new report - Energy Storage Networks
It's not like they simply try to call the local electronics store to get those batteries. I'm sure you remember the articles from some month ago, that they have been trying to secure supply contracts for battery cells with a volume close to $50 billion. They seem to be doing this today, to be prepared when they need them 3-5 years from now.
Regarding those missing factories in Europe, the VW Group has plants all over the world and plans to produce EVs in several locations. So a lot of those cars will probably be sold in Asia and the plants will be supplied by battery factories in Asia. Looking at current capacity projections on a global scale they currently seem to be between 250 and 350 GWh by 2022, depending on where you look and how old the data is. There have also been quite some announcements, when it comes to new european battery factories.
Not to be misunderstood: I can not be sure that the VW will achieve that goal until it happened. Maybe it's less and they can only ramp to 600k or 800k? Maybe it takes them until 2023 since things are delayed? I don't know and i don't really care, since it's not very important for the point i was trying to make, if they are a bit later or volume is a bit lower. It's just something i'd want to be aware of, if i was long TSLA.
Of course everyone here is free to believe nothing of this will happen and it's simply more lies and vaporware announced by VW, as Krugerrand demonstrated with his really fine and well thought-out post over here ...
Edit:
I don't know for sure, but i think so. I'd guess at least 40-50%.
This might drop to 200.... Musk might go to prison for that now. Criminal Probe. Wow.

Must be dumping like mad right now. Back down from 291 back to 282.
Now we find out for reals if that angel investor is willing to soak up shares like a sponge.
EDIT: $278 @ 11:54
NOT panicking
