Tesla’s Dominance: Made in China?
Tesla’s Shanghai Gigafactory sourcing 95% of its components locally raises some interesting questions. Is this a model for other EV manufacturers, or is Tesla uniquely positioned to benefit from this strategy? Could this level of localized sourcing create vulnerabilities down the line, perhaps related to geopolitical tensions or supply chain disruptions?
Furthermore, with over 60 Chinese suppliers now integrated into Tesla’s global supply chain, what are the implications for other countries and their automotive industries? Will we see a shift in the global automotive landscape, with China becoming the dominant player in EV component manufacturing?
I’m curious to hear your thoughts. Is this localized approach the future of EV manufacturing, or are there potential downsides we haven’t considered? Could this dependence on China ultimately backfire? Lets discuss.
