Tesla preps $1.4M Texas distribution center
The automotive and technology manufacturer expects the 538,720-square-foot facility to be operational by the end of 2028, per a state filing.
Tesla is set to construct a $1.4 million distribution center in Texas, near Austin, according to a September filing with the state’s Department of Licensing and Regulation. The 538,720-square-foot facility is expected to begin construction on December 7, with completion anticipated by the end of 2028. This expansion is part of Tesla's ongoing investment in the region.
Currently, Tesla does not have any delivery centers in Texas, despite having 135 such centers across the U.S., with the majority located in California and Florida. The company has not provided further details about the new facility. SpaceX, under the leadership of Tesla CEO Elon Musk, is concurrently developing a massive semiconductor manufacturing campus near Houston.
This $16.8 million project, known as the Terafab facility, aims to produce computing power for SpaceX, Tesla, and autonomous vehicles, among other applications. The site is still in its early stages, with the first phase currently underway.
