“Tesla put everything reported in the American newspaper into perspective. The plant is still being built,” Cristiani said, referring to a report in the Wall Street Journal last week that Tesla was pausing its plans to make batteries in Germany.

Cristiani also denied reports by local newspaper rbb last week that he had struck the topic of an extension to Tesla’s land to be used for logistics purposes from the local council agenda, saying it was never on the agenda.

The carmaker had applied for the extension in May and it was being discussed by the relevant community representatives, Cristiani said. Once these discussions were complete, the topic would come onto the agenda.

Tesla was not immediately available for comment.
