Tesla to hire 1,000 more Giga Berlin workers as Europe demand returns

Tesla plans to hire another 1,000 workers at its Gigafactory outside Berlin, the automaker confirmed Thursday, as it moves to ramp production at its only European plant.

The hiring push comes as Tesla targets 7,500 vehicles per week at the Grünheide factory starting in October — a sharp acceleration after more than a year of falling sales in Europe.
