Tesla's (NASDAQ: TSLA) Shanghai plant saw its 2 millionth vehicle roll off the assembly line today, the US electric vehicle maker announced.

It took 33 months for Giga Shanghai to achieve its first one million vehicles and just 13 months for its second one million vehicles, it said.

Currently, the plant sees a vehicle roll off the line in less than 40 seconds on average, Tesla said.

Tesla's Shanghai factory, which began construction on January 7, 2019, and went into operation at the end of 2019, is the first wholly foreign-owned automotive manufacturing project in China.

Giga Shanghai began delivering Model 3 sedans in January 2020 and Model Y crossovers in January 2021 to local consumers.

Giga Shanghai saw its one-millionth mass-produced vehicle roll off the assembly line on August 13, 2022, less than three years after the plant began production.

On July 13, Tesla's Shanghai plant saw the one millionth Model Y production vehicle roll off the line.

The factory, which now has an annual production capacity of more than 1 million vehicles, is Tesla's largest in the world and not only supplies vehicles to customers in China, but also serves as an export hub for the electric vehicle maker.

Tesla sells 84,159 China-made vehicles in Aug, up 31% from Jul
