Gigafactory Texas Construction
Gigafactory Texas construction continued — future Cybertruck production site
Construction continued at Gigafactory Texas in Austin, the facility where the Cybertruck would eventually be manufactured. The factory was still months from completion, adding to uncertainty about the Cybertruck’s production timeline. The facility was designed to be Tesla’s most advanced manufacturing facility, with plans for both Model Y and Cybertruck production.
The Cybertruck’s unique manufacturing requirements meant Tesla would need to build specialized production lines within the factory, including the large-format 4680 battery production line and the air bending equipment for the stainless steel panels. The factory’s completion was a milestone for Tesla’s long-term plans, as it would become the company’s largest manufacturing facility.
