Tesla Inc TSLA is increasing deliveries every quarter. Production of the mass-market Model 3 and Model Y are ramping up in Shanghai, and the vehicles will soon be built at Gigafactory Texas and Gigafactory Berlin, as well.
During a drone flyover, Twitter user @bentv_sh found a startling amount of Model 3 and Y vehicles at Gigafactory Shanghai. Fresh out of production, these vehicles are being stored in the parking lot waiting to be delivered to new owners.
"Because of the 'brake incident' at the Shanghai Auto Show, the Shanghai factory has upgraded security measures, and today's flight was stopped by factory security personnel, and the aerial footage was requested to be deleted, sorry! The pictures are surviving today #ElonMusk" pic.twitter.com/9PSDDnNsjO— 乌瓦 (@bentv_sh) April 28, 2021
