After Tesla built a wholly-owned factory in Shanghai, another factory was approved. According to the latest news, Tesla plans to spend 42 million yuan to build a new factory in Shanghai to produce charging piles.

According to the latest documents of the environmental information disclosure platform of Shanghai enterprises and institutions, the environmental impact report of Tesla charging pile project is in the public announcement before it is submitted for approval, and the publicity period ends on November 26th. Tesla plans to spend 42 million yuan to build a new factory in Shanghai's Pudong New area, according to the report.

It is understood that the new factory is a super charging pile factory integrating R & D and production. Tesla plans to be completed and put into production in February 2021, initially planning to produce 10000 super charging piles a year, mainly V3 super charging piles.

At present, the charging piles installed by Tesla in China are mainly imported from the United States. According to the above documents, the background of the construction of the new plant is to meet the convenient and fast charging needs of electric vehicles in the domestic market, Tesla (Shanghai) Co., Ltd. introduced the third generation super charging piles. Weishang (Shanghai) warehousing Service Co., Ltd. is located at 1318 Tiangao Road, Pudong New area, Shanghai to manufacture charging piles for key facilities for new energy vehicles.

Nearly 650 supercharging stations (about 5000 DC charging piles) and more than 2000 destination charging piles (AC charging piles) are expected to cover more than 250 cities by the end of 2020, Tesla said on Nov. 6. It is estimated that by the end of 2020, the total number of overfilled and eye-filled piles will reach more than 7000, covering major cities and inter-city connections in the country.

It is understood that Tesla V3 super charging pile can support the highest peak charging power of 250KW. Taking Model 3 as an example, when charging with V3 super charging pile, the maximum mileage of 250km can be replenished in 15 minutes.

In terms of sales volume, domestic Tesla Model 3 delivered 12143 vehicles in October, and from January to October this year, domestic Tesla Model 3 delivered a cumulative total of 92051 vehicles, temporarily ranking first in new energy vehicle sales. At present, the domestic Model 3 standard life upgrade price of 249900 yuan, the latest price reduction during the National Day.

Recently, Tesla fell into a quality storm and launched two recalls in a row.

Tesla announced an immediate recall of 300000 vehicles with design defects in the front or rear suspension, resulting in broken shafts or connecting rods. The recall was carried out under the investigation of the State Administration of Market Supervision and Administration. Tesla announced a recall of 870 imported Model Xs on Nov. 27, saying the roof trim panels are at risk of falling off, increasing the risk of collisions or injuries among rear vehicles, especially motorcycles.

Driven by domestic Tesla, the market share of domestic new energy vehicles has been further expanded. With the domestic delivery of Model Y early next year and the development of more localization projects, Tesla still has the potential to expand in China.
