0:00.0 | Hello and welcome to the Tuesday September 10th 2019 edition of Tesla Daily Unofficial |
0:12.0 | Tesla Podcast. |
0:13.0 | My name is Rob Maower. Today we are talking about a new building permit for Tesla in |
0:16.8 | Fremont, as well as an update to the referral program and some news on Rivian. |
0:20.9 | Tesla stock continuing to perform well on the day up 1.62% to |
0:25.5 | $235.54 that compared to the Nasdak down 0.04%. All right the first |
0:31.9 | thing I wanted to talk about today is a building permit that Tesla filed with the city of Fremont back last week on Thursday. |
0:39.0 | It started to pick up some media attention this week because in the initial posting of that building permanent application, the project description read |
0:47.5 | quote Tesla GA5 demo and rough grading, end quote. So GA5 would presumably refer to general |
0:55.2 | assembly five we know that Tesla has four general assembly lines in the |
0:58.7 | Fremont factory currently with GA4 being in the sprung structure also known as the tent. |
1:04.8 | So potentially some exciting news here this would signify some expansion plans at |
1:09.0 | Fremont though it doesn't give us any indication of what GA5 might be four, which means we're left to speculate. |
1:16.2 | The two options that come to mind first would be to either expand model three production |
1:20.0 | or to set up a new general assembly line for model Y. |
1:24.0 | There could be other options here too that aren't immediately apparent. |
1:27.0 | For example, maybe Tesla is re-examining the current production setup that they have in preparation for adding a model |
1:33.8 | why production and maybe as a part of that they decided that they needed to |
1:37.3 | relocate maybe part of or all of or multiple general assembly lines and then maybe |
1:42.0 | some piece of that eventually ends up becoming a general assembly lines, and then maybe some piece of that eventually |
1:43.2 | ends up becoming a general assembly line five. Now I think something like that's |
1:46.5 | unlikely obviously I don't have a lot of experience with production planning. |
