Tegtmeyer previously shared an image of a new Model Y test body without a bottom floor, being transported at the site, suggesting Tesla was ready to produce or test cars with its new 4680 structural battery pack. Tesla is slated to produce its Model Y and Cybertruck at its new Gigafactory in Austin.
