Tesla's Gigafactory in China, which is also its primary export hub, he been shut down for about three weeks now due to Shanghai's COVID-19 lockdowns. We learned last week that the factory would likely reopen on April 18, 2022, and as far as we understand, it has. However, there are many important details to report.
Giga Shanghai did reopen yesterday, but it seems production may not have started right away. Some reports yesterday suggested it "has started," others say it's "starting," and still others noted that it would likely be another day, meaning production should be officially underway at this point.
