Tesla Gigafactory Adds Electric Motor Production For Model 3...
We have known for some time that Tesla's Gigafactory would ultimately build more than just the raw battery cells for the Tesla Model 3, but on Tuesday night we found out some specifics.
During Nevada Governor Brian Sandoval's "State of the State" address (attended also by Tesla's chief technology officer JB Straubel – watch below), we learned that the factory will produce both electric motors and gear boxes for the upcoming Model 3.
The governor stated that the additional investment will cost Tesla about $350 million, and will add 550 new "skilled" jobs to the battery facility. Sandoval also noted that there was currently ~1,000 full-time workers employed at the Gigafactory, and some 2,000 construction persons.
Nevada had previously approved almost $1.4 billion in incentives that Tesla could be eligible for over time (and with the hiring of some 6,500 workers).
