The reason for the action is the lack of components due to shifts in transportation routes due to the conflict in the Red Sea. Production is scheduled to fully resume from February 12.
Tesla was forced to stop a large part of its car production at its Gruenheide factory in the German state of Brandenburg for two weeks. The electric car manufacturer announced on Thursday evening that the reason for the action was a shortage of components due to shifts in transportation routes due to the armed conflict in the Red Sea.
“Armed conflicts in the Red Sea and associated shifts in transport routes between Europe and Asia via the Cape of Good Hope are also affecting production in Gruenheide. Much longer transport times are creating a gap in supply chains.
Tesla was therefore forced to suspend vehicle production at its Gigafactory in Berlin-Brandenburg between January 29 and February 11, except for a few regions. Production should fully resume from February 12. (APA/Reuters)
