Tesla announced two major milestones this week, highlighting its global production and energy storage expansion.
Tesla Asia stated on September 18 that Giga Shanghai has exported its 1 millionth vehicle. The announcement, shared via the company’s social media channel, marked a significant achievement for the facility, which began operations in 2019. “Thanks to all Tesla owners and supporters!” Tesla Asia said in the post. A picture was shared of a cargo ship with Tesla vehicles parked to outline “1M”, to signify 1 million.
Separately, Tesla Energy announced on Monday that 750,000 Powerwalls have been installed worldwide. Powerwalls are the company’s home energy storage product designed to store electricity for backup power and self-consumption.
Tesla is set to announce its Q3 delivery numbers on Wednesday, ahead of its highly anticipated “We, Robot” special event on October 10, 2024.
