After a three-week shutdown at Tesla's Giga Shanghai in China, production is ramping back up in a big way. This comes as no surprise thanks to the factory's successful ramps in the past, and Tesla's need to make up for a notable chunk of lost production.

Keep in mind that the factory pause not only impacted local Tesla deliveries in China, but also deliveries across the globe since the China factory is Tesla's primary export hub.

As noted by our friends at Teslarati, CEO Elon Musk said on the recent Q1 2022 Tesla investors conference call that production at Giga Shanghai is "coming back with a vengeance."

Tesla just reopened the factory on Monday, April 18, 2022, though, reportedly, production didn't start immediately. Instead, the company was making preparations to begin a close-loop factory setup, where employees would temporarily eat and sleep at the factory.

The automaker reportedly started with just a single shift, though it's longer and runs for more days than the factory's usual situation. While Giga Shanghai typically runs 24 hours per day with three shifts on a four-days-on-two-days-off schedule, production started this week with single 12-hour shifts running six days on with one day off.

Various local media outlets also reported that the lots were filling up, and even showed car carriers transporting Tesla's vehicles away from the factory, so we can only assume that the images are current.

My Take: Its going to take a bit of time to get back to where they were before the shut down.
