Elon has tweeted that Tesla will build batteries, powertrains, vehicles starting with Model Y in a new Gigafactory in Berlin.
Tesla has indicated that the European gigafactory should be operational in 2021.
Elon Musk was in Berlin at “Das Goldene Lenkrad” Awards. Tesla Model 3 won the midsize premium category, obtaining more points than any car in any other category.
