Thank CTOnews.com netizens Wa Pure Water and Mr. Aviation for their clue delivery! CTOnews.com, July 7, according to 36 krypton, Tesla recently stopped production of the battery phase 1 production line at the Shanghai Lingang factory and will adjust the self-made strategy of the battery pack and hand over some of the battery packages to the supplier.
▲ Tuyuan Pexels a number of business people close to Tesla said that as Tesla's main selling models Model 3 and Model Y are about to be revamped and upgraded, Tesla is planning to hand over some of his home-made battery packages to suppliers for production. Stopping the first phase of the battery production line is also a move against this background.
At present, Tesla Shanghai Lingang Super Factory has three battery factories in Phase 1, Phase 2 and Phase 2.2. The phase 1 production line that stopped production this time is the earliest, but the production capacity is also relatively small. People familiar with the matter said that the first phase of the battery factory has a low degree of automation and can no longer meet the needs of Tesla, while phase 2.2 will replace phase 1 to complete the production of part of the battery pack.
Tesla plans to upgrade the battery pack of this year's new Model 3, which will upgrade the power of the basic rear wheel drive board from 60kWh to 66kWh and use Ningde-era M3P new lithium iron phosphate battery. The new battery pack will also be used in subsequent models as a platform scheme.
CTOnews.com previously reported that Tesla's Shanghai plant has begun to lay off employees related to battery assembly, which mainly involves employees in the first phase of battery assembly, and more than 50% of the employees will be laid off. Most of them are negotiated compensation for layoffs, a small number of people change jobs, and the equipment for the first phase of battery assembly will also be dismantled or transferred.
