line improvements is underway. Giga Berlin only currently produces the Model Y crossover. According to, during the recent upgrades in Germany, Tesla halted production for two weeks to work on casting machines and install additional machinery to improve Model Y production.
Tesla's factory in Germany produces about 1,000 EVs per week right now, which appears to be comparable to the situation at Tesla's newest plant in Austin, Texas. However, according to local reports, a two-shift setup is coming for Giga Berlin's workers, and the automaker also has plans to ramp up hiring at the factory.
Giga Berlin is currently home to about 5,000 employees. However, once the second shift fires up, Tesla will need many more bodies to work the lines and related equipment. As the company noted earlier this year, while it's reorganizing some job positions, only some salaried positions are going away. In the meantime, Tesla is hiring hourly employees across the globe.
