According to reports from employees at the Shanghai Gigafactory, Tesla plans to upgrade the facility in the first two weeks of July. COVID-19 restrictions are no longer the cause of production stoppages.

The company has already lost a significant amount of production momentum this spring amid a spike in COVID-19 illnesses in China. Stopping production for another two weeks could worsen the situation by the final annual results.
