Elon got into that plant for light money and of course some concessions from the state and local gov. I can see Tesla closing it as new production sites come online. they made some decent products It was just not allocated future products because of the costs of producing in Cali vs other places. Cheaper to build corollas in iN or OH or wherever Toyota is doing them now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
