Tesla's Giga Shanghai Transitions From Exports To Local Deliveries

Over the course of the last few months, we've been so surprised by Tesla's output at Giga Shanghai that we've been sharing drone videos with you. If you're not familiar, those drone videos typically show a large number of Tesla's vehicles at the Shanghai South Port Terminal ready for export. However, as you'll see in the video above, there are almost no Teslas left.

While some folks may instantly say that the lack of Tesla vehicles at the port near Giga Shanghai is an indication of falling demand for the cars, that's not likely the case at all. Tesla uses the first two months or so of each quarter to focus on exports and/or deliveries furthest from its factories. This gives it time to work out logistics and make sure the EVs can meet their destination and be delivered before the quarter comes to an end.
