Tesla has now produced more than three million cars, a third of them in China, CEO Elon Musk announced on Sunday.
"Congrats Giga Shanghai on making millionth car! Total Teslas made now over 3M," Musk tweeted.
Construction for Tesla's Shanghai factory began in 2018, but the facility has been plagued by shutdowns and other problems in recent years due to the coronavirus pandemic.
Tesla produced 258,000 vehicles in the second quarter, a 15% drop from the 305,000 vehicles that were produced from January through March.
