Brazilian government confirms negotiations to have Tesla in the country
On February 19, Tesla highlighted plans to build a new Gigafactory in Brazil. With due clarifications, it can now be reported that it is actually the opposite: Brazil wants Tesla to have a Gigafactory. That's what officials from the Ministry of Science, Technology, Innovation and Communications of Brazil confirmed to InsideEVs. Another article by Automotive Business, makes this even more evident.
Christiane Corrêa, head of the Special Institutional Affairs Council, confirmed to InsideEVs that the meeting took place as described and that “the possible opening of Tesla facilities in Brazil is being discussed confidentially.”
That is, the Brazilian Government wants to have Tesla in the country, not only selling its cars, but also producing. Tesla vehicles could then be exported to other nearby markets such as Argentina, Chile, Paraguay, Uruguay, Colombia, the Caribbean region and even Mexico, a country with which Brazil has a free trade agreement.
