Hole In Roof Key To Mass Production Of Tesla Model 3?

• insideevs.com by Steven Loveday

In fact, the company intends to make over a half million cars a year, and to eventually trump that of many major legacy automakers. It may all trace back to the design of the Tesla Model 3.

This is due to the way in which Tesla intends to handle production. The Fremont factory is surely capable of making a whole lot of cars, as was proven in the past by GM and Toyota. However, it seems that Tesla is talking about numbers much bigger. How will the company achieve record-setting production?

If Tesla wants to continue to prove itself and remain successful, the company really doesn't have a choice. About 400,000 reservations for the Model 3 are sitting and waiting. Surveys and information show that there is a myriad of interest out there, probably well beyond the reservation holders. But, one of the biggest consumer concerns is the waiting … the timeline. And, of course there are still skeptics that don't believe Tesla can pull it off.

The company needs to have all of its ducks in a row at the Gigafactory and with the new Model 3 line in Fremont.
