Elon Musk recently mentioned the need to get into “mass production” of the Semi truck in an email sent to all Tesla employees. The existence of the email revealed by Reuters on Wednesday was confirmed the same day by the CEO on Twitter. "Yes," replied the whimsical manager, quite simply, to a surfer who asked him about the authenticity of the email that had leaked concerning the manufacture of the Semi.
Is the leaked semi production email legit?
- James Stephenson (@ICannot_Enough) June 10, 2020"The battery and powertrain will be manufactured in [the factory] Giga Nevada," said Elon Musk in a message to his employees. Most of the other operations will certainly be carried out in other states. ” However, he did not provide further details on the subject.
The second world manufacturer
Tesla's CEO has said in the past that he is looking for an American state where he can invest and build the brand's new factory. Among the places considered, Texas seemed to have seduced the decision maker. But other states, including Oklahoma, had also expressed their wish to host the production unit.
No date has been given for the launch of large-scale production of the electric truck, presented for the first time in 2017 by the American brand. The lack of detailed information on the future of the Semi did not prevent the financial markets from reacting positively to the news. The Tesla share price has indeed crossed the $ 1,000 mark on Wednesday, after the disclosure of the content of the email.
The title thus recorded an increase in its value of 6%. This increase has enabled Tesla to become the second largest automaker in the world in terms of capitalization, behind the Japanese Toyota Motor Corp.
