EV giant Tesla Inc (NASDAQ:TSLA) will shut down production at its Berlin gigafactory for just a day this week, an executive confirmed, contrary to initial reports which said the halt would last for four days.
What Happened: Andre Thierig, Senior Director of Manufacturing at Giga Berlin, confirmed on social media platform X that the shutdown will only be for a day.
“Correct. One day planned production shutdown,” Thierig wrote. Initial reports pegged the shutdown at four days, including the weekends when no production is carried out at the factory and Thursday, a public holiday in the country.
