Based on new details shared by the chief engineer of the Shanghai Economics and Information Technology Commission Zhang Hongtao, Tesla has ramped electric vehicle production in China back up to over 80 percent of capacity. Hongtao added that many other companies in China are also successfully ramping up after the lengthy lockdowns.
According to Teslarati, China basically whitelisted certain companies so that they could ramp up production and minimize the overall impact of the COVID-19 lockdowns and related supply chain constraints. Nearly 2,000 companies have now been whitelisted, and Tesla is, of course, on the list.
