Looks like EM announced to Tesla staff in Berlin this weekend that the Model 2 will be built in Giga Berlin.

Starting price is 25,000 Euro.

Apparently, they already have the building approvals to double the factory in Berlin to do so, so it looks like Germany will jump ahead of the Mexican production line for now.

Excite! I imagine this car will sell very well.

Initially, Tesla was hoping to unveil the $25,000 car by the end of 2023 and start building the vehicle at a new factory to be built in Nuevo Leon, Mexico by the end of 2024. However, certain delays and changes of plans appear to have pushed the unveiling to 2024 and the start of production to at least 2025.

Tesla appears to have also decided to initially build the $25,000 robotaxi at Giga Texas which based on supplier rumors has pushed the start of robotaxi production at Giga Mexico even further to 2026 or 2027.

Currently, there isn’t much clarity on Tesla’s plans regarding the $25,000 car, however, if Musk announced that the vehicle will be built in Giga Berlin in front of employees, then it would suggest that the EV maker might have once again decided to accelerate the plans for the vehicle.
