Tesla plants in Europe and the United States have been experiencing difficulties as they have been unable to reach their design capacity for quite some time. This promises potential losses for Elon Musk, and could also lead to a decline in interest in his electric cars. How could the Russian manufacturers of “electric trains” not be in the same situation.
The best-known electric car maker, Tesla, recently announced that its factory near Berlin produces 1,000 cars a week. That is about ten times lower than originally planned. By the way, they wanted to achieve such indicators in April, but the plans were not destined to come true.
This production has a difficult fate. They wanted to launch it again in 2021, but for a long time management was unable to get all the necessary permits and when the factory started working, the supply chains started to break.
Another Tesla plant in Texas ran into trouble when its innovative 4680-size traction batteries went into production, preventing it from producing even 1,000 cars a week.
As you can see, the production of electric cars carries certain risks, both in terms of debugging business processes and the introduction of new technologies. No matter how Russian manufacturers face similar problems.
Recall that they want to produce domestic hybrids and electric vehicles at the former Renault plant in Moscow. The Lipetsk company Motorinvest also plans to produce electric trains under the Evolute brand. AVTOVAZ, UAZ and KamAZ have similar innovative projects. Let’s recall cars like Lada Ellada and Lada Vesta EV, as well as the MWM Spartan EV electric SUV based on the Hunter. And of course the new EVM Pro based on UAZ-Profi, which was shown at SPIEF-2022. As for Kamaza, he showed a compact electric car Kama-1 at the end of 2020. All this, of course, is good, but only the idea of electrification in today’s reality is utopian.
