忙碌的上海码头布满特斯拉

 

 Tesla's all over the Shanghai docks waiting to be loaded (Nov.18.2021)

Last week on November 14, a shipment of Teslas left Shanghai's Luchao Port Nangang Terminal for Europe. Today I went to Shanghai's other port, Waigaoqiao Haitong Terminal, to see if there were any Teslas being loaded there. Haitong Terminal is about 60 kilometers from Tesla's Shanghai factory and is the shipping terminal for the first batch of Teslas exported from the Shanghai factory to Europe. When I was observing at the periphery of the yard, I didn't see a single Tesla at the site where it was originally parked, thinking that maybe Tesla was not exporting vehicles at this terminal anymore. When I took off the drone to inspect the whole site, I was shocked that there was a big Tesla square in the center of the yard, and there were also small Tesla squares around it, if we compare the yard to a Go board, then Tesla occupied most of the positions.

On the shore, two ro-ro vessels were docked, and from the looks of the site, there was a shipment to be loaded. I'm not sure if these two ships will be loading Teslas next, but in the near future, the yard will certainly be loaded with Teslas for export to various countries.

At this point, Tesla has completed the transition of its Shanghai Superfactory as a major vehicle export center.
