Tesla Reveals Stunning Render of Giga Nevada’s Semi Factory Under Construction

Tesla has unveiled a new rendering of its upcoming Semi factory at Giga Nevada, showcasing the facility's expansive design as early development begins on-site.

Semi Factory Material Shipments Begin

An executive from Tesla has posted a snapshot of the Semi factory in Nevada, where it is now under development, along with an illustration of the finished product.

The latest rendering of the finished look of the planned Semi facility at Gigafactory Nevada was posted on X by Semi Program Head Dan Priestley on Saturday. Today, he also shared a snapshot of the site, as early development begins. The rendering features a large number of Semi docking bays along the facility's facade and the word "Semi" on top of the building.

According to Teslarati, earlier this month, Tesla started preparing to start building on the Semi manufacturing expansion. Weeks ago, huge shipments of steel and other materials were spotted being carried to the site. Along with the expansion plans for a 4,680 battery cell manufacturing on-site, the company initially started ground on the expansion project in January.

Giga Nevada to Add 6,500 Jobs

A total of 6,500 full-time workers are anticipated to be added to the site between the Semi and 4680 battery cell facilities as a result of the expansion project, which was announced last year. The expansions, which are expected to add approximately four million square feet of manufacturing area, will eventually cost nearly $3.6 billion.

Tesla plans to start making Semis at Giga Nevada in the latter half of 2025, with delivery to select early 2026 customers. After delivering its first batch of pre-Giga Nevada Semi units to PepsiCo in December 2022, Tesla has recently expanded its customer base. Later on, the business revealed that PepsiCo will be receiving more units, and that Costco, Martin Brower, and Walmart would also be placing purchases.
