Tesla is considering to start the construction of second European super factory in Russia: Elon Musk

Tesla CEO Elon Musk said today that Tesla is about to establish a business in Russia and is considering whether to open a factory there. Musk said at an event that Tesla already has production bases in China and the United States, and is currently considering opening factories in other parts of the world.

Musk said that Tesla is considering Russia as a potential location for its second European Gigafactory. In addition, Tesla also hopes to start a business in Kazakhstan and other neighboring countries such as the Commonwealth of Independent States as soon as possible.

He said: “I think we will soon establish a business in Russia, which will be amazing. In addition, we also need to pay more attention to Kazakhstan and other CIS countries. This is important to us. ”

Last weekend, Musk arrived at London Luton Airport by private jet and stayed for two days. According to British media reports, Musk’s visit to the UK coincided with British officials looking for a location for “a large new car factory.” This has led to speculation that Tesla is considering building a factory in the UK.

In addition, Musk also visited Berlin last week to visit Tesla’s German factory. It is reported that the purpose of Musk’s visit to the German factory is mainly technical. Tesla’s German factory was originally scheduled to be put into operation before July 1 this year, but it has now been postponed until the end of the year to the beginning of next year.

Furthermore, Musk also said in Russia today that future cars will realize autonomous driving. Except for rockets, all vehicles in the future will be electric. He also stated that the logical next step is to establish a permanent base on the moon and eventually a city on Mars.
