A Tesla expansion in North Carolina? It could be on the table

Two years after a North Carolina megasite was the runner-up for a $1.6 billion Toyota-Mazda manufacturing facility, officials and consultants continue to market the land to major companies – including to Elon Musk-founded electric car brand Tesla.

At the North Carolina Transportation Summit in Raleigh, Mike Solomon, director of economic development for North Carolina for the Timmons Group, said he’s been pursuing manufacturing interest for the Greensboro-Randolph Megasite since the state’s close call with Toyota (which ended up picking Alabama in 2018).

And that includes the pursuit of Tesla, he said.

“I’ve been having an opportunity talk to the Tesla folks over the last six months about sites here in North Carolina,” Solomon told keynote speaker, author and entrepreneur Tony Seba from the crowd.

Solomon didn’t say how far along the conversations with Tesla had gone. Nor would he say whether they were limited to the Randolph County megasite.

Obviously fake, a few days ago there was an article where a public figure stated something about Tesla opening another factory in the USA and were were told said public figure is an idiot and has no clue.

Also, IF tesla was interested the first thing out of their lawyers mouth would be "KEEP YOUR PIEHOLE SHUT ABOUT THIS UNTIL WE HAVE A DEAL OR....

Unless the belief is public support might put a project over the edge.

It'd have to be near the edge to put it over the edge.

All the article says is that a certain director of economic development was "pursuing" Tesla to come lease their site that Toyota almost did a couple years ago.

Thanks for posting, though OP, interesting to know about.
