Tesla Giga Shanghai has resumed over 80% production along with several other companies, according to Chinese official Zhang Hongtao, the chief engineer of the Shanghai Economics and Information Technology Commission.

China created a "whitelist" to support companies resuming production and minimize the impact of Covid along the supply chain. As of Saturday, April 30, approximately 1854 companies have made it onto the whitelist, including Tesla, and are authorized to resume work.

During a press conference, Zhang stated that Shanghai created a second list of 1188 companies that can resume work. According to the Global Times, the companies fall into the automobile manufacturing, equipment manufacturing, and biomedicine sector.

Tesla welcomed about 8000 workers back to Giga Shanghai by April 19 after subsequent lockdowns due to Covid outbreaks. At the time, Giga Shanghai’s Senior Director of manufacturing Song Gang publicly stated that battery and motor production was "already producing at full speed."

During the Q1 2022 earnings call, Musk estimated that Tesla’s Q2 build and delivery numbers might be more or less than it did in the first quarter as Shanghai ramps back up to full production. Tesla produced 305407 and delivered 310048 vehicles in the first quarter. However, Musk was optimistic that Shanghai’s build and delivery volume would significantly increase by Q3 and Q4.
