Tesla's Berlin gigafactory road base complete

May 21, 2020

Tesla's new gigafactory located in Berlin seems to finally have completed the roads for its new building. According to new aerial drone footage uploaded by the youtube channel ‘Tesla Grünheide’, it shows a wide open landscape with before and after footage. Last week the terrain was only dirt and wilderness but this week there are roads and bulldozers on site. 


Progress of the build can indicate that they are preparing to build the new foundations soon. This would be on pace to Tesla's ambitious claim that they want to have the gigafactory built by July 2021. When completed it will be Tesla’s first European gigafactory, paving the way to having faster production and deliveries in Europe and the United Kingdom. 


According to Elon Musk's Tweet, the factory will build batteries, powertrains, and vehicles, starting with the Model Y.
