Tesla is expanding its Fremont factory to meet the production capacity of Model Y.

Foreign media reports that Tesla is expanding a new workshop in its Fremont Super Factory, which is expected to be completed soon and provide additional production capacity for the upcoming Model Y, a Tesla model that focuses on economic performance and has gained widespread attention both domestically and internationally, with market projections suggesting significant sales potential. Currently, the Model Y is only produced at Tesla’s factory in Fremont, California, and the new factory is expected to significantly increase production capacity, which will be crucial to meet demand. According to the foreign website Tesmanian, a new assembly line (GA 4.5) is being built near the Model 3 assembly workshop. At present, we can only see the roof of the workshop from the outside, but construction is nearing completion, meaning Tesla will soon be able to produce a large number of Model Ys. Surprisingly, it took less than half a month to complete the construction to the roof stage, after news broke on June 29 that Tesla was assembling a new production workshop, GA 4.5, to address production capacity. The new assembly line will help improve production efficiency at Tesla’s Fremont factory, which will be beneficial for the Q3 delivery of the Model Y. Additionally, a new larger parking lot has been built next to the production workshop to store produced Model 3s and Model Ys, indicating that Tesla will not slow down production during the third quarter.
