At the Q2 2020 Earnings Call, Tesla CEO Elon Musk announced the location of the new factory. The Gigafactory for the production of the Semi, Cybertruck, Model Y, and Model 3 will be built in Austin, Texas and will be Tesla’s largest factory yet.
For now, the plan describes a 280-acre building, although the company has purchased a 2,100-acre site. Of course, given the company’s plans for the production of the Semi, Cybertruck, Model Y, and Model 3—as well as the presence of a recreation area on the territory of Giga Texas—it is not surprising that Tesla needs such a massive piece of land.
