Tesla did not immediately respond to an e-mailed request for comment. The $2 billion factory it is building in the eastern Chinese city of Shanghai is its first car manufacturing site overseas. Tesla intends to produce at least 1,000 Model 3s a week from the Shanghai factory by the end of this year, as it tries to boost sales in the world’s biggest auto market and avoid higher import tariffs imposed on U.S. cars.
It's good for Tesla, Chinese local automobile manufacturers' good time is coming.
Musk promises to turn in any dissidents he comes across!
Good luck Elon. Think you will need it. Electric_Flying_Cars Lillium
It’s hard to sell in that time. Maybe should stop.
Gilt? Gimbals.
The real question should be, how will a company fare in a foreign country that can't get manufacturing right at a UAW plant they were given with plenty of engineering help and an experienced work force?

What does Elon think of the Chinese re-education camps, I wonder.

Right on...they'll make good use of that self-parking feature.
Then the next year there will be flood or Tesla like cars in the market? Tekla, Tessa, Golden Wing maybe ?
Winnnii....!! never mind
So if you drive a made in China Tesla and the US goes to war against China will the Chinese press an IT switch to make all the Teslas in America crash simultaneously?
Forced technology transfer. Tesla naive.

They could be building the Teslas that are to be driven in Europe or China, or anywhere else in the world. It’s daft to think you can ‘own’ all car production, why should that be the case?
what technology transfer or 'participation' is the price of entry?
Great way to use American workers...Elon...
😱 Seriously.
oh no
looks like Americans are more nationalism than Chinese
elonmusk hope you have good cyber-security.
We can bid the counterfeit telsa over Alibaba soon
Yet another company selling its voice and values for dollars. No business in/with China gets green lights without going through the CCP. Thought more of Tesla and elonmusk
China speed provided great supports for success of Tesla
Did LeBron approve this move?
elonmusk I bet that factory will be cleaner than the sites where the Chinese Communist Party harvests organs from prisoners on conscience! I also bet that CCP cock in your mouth suddenly makes the Chinese government seem really fair & just.
Made in China v2.0
No entiendo la indignación, si al final los beneficios van a los mismos ricos de siempre, y si pasa algo malo, ¡ah, es que es Chino! ¡¡¡andaaa!!!
It might mean ordinary people could afford to buy its car's at the expense of Chinese labour, hopefully they will have excellent pay and conditions.
Sad..

Won't be buying a Tesla.
WTF elonmusk
