When questioned by investors regarding plans to expand production capacity at the Berlin and Austin plants and the timetable for the new factory in Mexico, Vaibhav Taneja, Tesla's Chief Financial Officer, mentioned that they are actively engaged in the infrastructure design of the Mexican plant.

Giga México

Elon Musk, CEO of Tesla, emphasized their preparation for commencing construction at Giga Mexico, noting, "We are laying the groundwork for Giga Mexico, doing all the long lead items, but I think we just want to get a better sense of the global economy before we go full speed on the new Mexico factory."
