Tesla wants to ramp up Model Y crossover production in Texas to 75,000 vehicles per quarter in anticipation of increased demand starting in early 2023

Tesla plans to increase the design capacity of a plant in Texas that produces Model Y electric cars. The same plant will also produce the Cybertuck in the future.

Here's What We Know

According to Electrek, the U.S. manufacturer intends to deliver 75,000 Model Y electric crossovers to market in the first quarter of next year, while the design capacity of the plant is designed to produce 250,000 cars per year.

The production ramp-up in the first quarter of next year has its reasons. The company is preparing for a surge in demand for electric cars. This is due to the fact that buyers of electric cars will be given a $7500 tax deduction on each vehicle starting next year.

What's interesting is that the current agreements don't include an option to defer getting a car until early 2023. For this reason, some buyers are turning down orders with deliveries due to be completed by the end of this year.
