Speculations have it that Tesla had warned the authorities that the company would witness a week and half of delay in upgradation of Shanghai built Model 3 cars due to the virus outbreak, which has now severely disturbed communications and supply chains across the country.
Tesla Vice President, Tao Lin recently made declarations regarding the commencement of production. He cited that productions would shortly resume and car deliveries from the plant would be temporarily delayed.
Meanwhile, Xu Wei, the Shanghai municipal government spokesman reportedly quoted that government is set to render all kinds of support to key manufacturing firms including Tesla in resuming the businesses amidst practical difficulties faced. The authorities are anticipated to coordinate to make the productions happen as soon as possible.
Moreover, the government also mentioned that it would ask banks to extend loans to small and medium companies and relieve firms in hard-hit sectors from value added tax, in line with other measures to bolster business during the pandemic.
For the records, Tesla’s USD 2 billion Shanghai unit is the company’s first outside US facility which was built with support from the local authorities. Furthermore, assistance like this would also apply to other foreign companies in the coming time.
