Tesla has achieved a major milestone in its electric vehicle production, announcing that it has now built its 4 millionth car. This is an impressive feat, considering it took the automaker 12 years to build its first million vehicles. Now, just a few years later, Tesla has managed to ramp up production to an incredible rate.
At its Investor Day event yesterday, Tesla announced that it has now produced its 4 millionth electric car, and it took the automaker only seven months from its 3 millionth milestone. The 4 millionth Tesla vehicle was produced at Gigafactory Texas in Austin. With new capacity being deployed at the factory and a Gigafactory Berlin, Tesla is now able to produce about two million vehicles per year.
Tesla has a goal to ramp up to produce 20 million electric vehicles per year. To achieve this, the automaker is expanding its Gigafactory Nevada to add Tesla Semi production at the location, and it recently announced Gigafactory Mexico. Last year, CEO Elon Musk said that he believes Tesla will need about 12 Gigafactories in order to achieve a capacity of 20 million vehicles per year.
Tesla’s impressive production rate is a testament to the company’s commitment to innovation and sustainability. With more gigafactories on the way, Tesla is well on its way to achieving its goal of producing 20 million electric vehicles per year by 2030.
