Tesla CEO Elon Musk says the Nevada factory making batteries for the company's Model 3 sedan dramatically increased output in recent months.
Musk said Wednesday that the Reno-area Gigafactory produced a sustained rate of 3,000 battery packs per week.
This marks an improvement from six months ago when Musk was blaming problems at the factory for slowing down production of the Model 3.

He now says that improvements at the Gigafactory and Tesla’s factory in Fremont, California, will help the company step up its production to 5,000 vehicles per week.
