CEO Elon Musk has just tweeted that he congratulates the Tesla team for making the 1 millionth car.

Musk also tweeted two photos, one of which was the 1 millionth car which is a Model Y, and a group photo of employees and the car.

Since last year, Tesla's expansion has significantly accelerated.

Last month, SH Observer reported that Tesla's Shanghai Gigafactory is expected to achieve a production capacity of about 12,000 vehicles per month, and this number will gradually rise.

Before the Lunar New Year, Tesla hired hundreds of new employees in China. According to the original plan, these employees will be recruited after the year.

Affected by the new coronavirus pneumonia epidemic, these employees have to postpone registration until February 10, the report quoted Gong Wei, general manager of Shanghai Lingang Innovation Economic Development Service Co., Ltd.

"Even so, more than 300 people are coming to Shanghai. Most of them have no accommodation and it is difficult to rent a house during this time."

Gong Wei said, "We prepared multiple plans, and finally selected two public rental houses in the industrial area that were rented before sale, and more than 200 of them were sourced, which is enough to meet the rental needs of these Tesla employees."
