True, however the converted larger plant is not as productive. It's not all
the workers. It's the compromise Tesla made to get the plant on the cheap. They
paid later in reduced productivity. Lawrence Rhodes

Sadly, I think the Chinese are much better workers. The quality in the
Chinese plant is also much higher.
The Chinese plant also benefits from 8 years of manufacturing knowledge.

Here is the problem. Fremont is bigger than the Chinese plant and produces
much less. Lawrence Rhodes

And also, let's not forget that Tesla's Fremont plant (the first one) was
originally a 1961 GM plant, then later GM/Toyota, so not only not made for EVs,
but originally for 1960's ICE! Tesla produces the Model S, X, 3 and Y there.

Not so fast. His "80% of the factory needs to be re-tooled" is what the
manufacturers face every time they re-tool for *any* new model,
regardless of whether it is an ICE or EV.
