Part 6/11:
One of Tesla's most promising developments is the ramp-up of its 4680 battery cell production, which is critical for future vehicle manufacturing and margins. Currently, Tesla manufactures enough 4680 cells for about 1,000 vehicles per week—a number expected to grow as production scales. The company has been addressing production bottlenecks, and recent reports from platforms like Electric indicate improved throughput, suggesting a smoother ramp in the near future.
Tesla's commitment to expanding 4680 cell production across multiple sites, including Berlin and Austin, marks a significant step forward. The batteries produced are still comparable to previous generations but have enormous potential for future improvement, which will further enhance vehicle performance and cost-efficiency.
