Until now, LFP batteries have been mainly used by Chinese manufacturers such as BYD or CATL in the low-cost segment, but now Tesla is increasingly relying on them as well.

Düsseldorf, Leon production in Tesla– Start a plant in Grunheide. Tesla boss Elon Musk made the announcement last Saturday in a forum on the site. Short downer: It will take a while for the factory to run at full speed. Only 10,000 vehicles are to be produced in Grünheide in 2022.
Quite low, given the total capacity of 500,000 pieces. As Musk says, starting a factory is complicated and “super difficult.” In addition, the new battery factory is being built now and will not be finished for a year. Tesla boss says that by then the battery will come from China.
So far, vehicles for Europe have also come from Shanghai. Tesla has been importing the Model 3 from there since last year, and the new crossover Model Y for a few weeks.
