The US electric car manufacturer Tesla wants to deliver the first cars around two weeks after the approval of its new plant in Grünheide near Berlin.
According to information from the German Press Agency on Monday, this is scheduled for March 22nd.
At an event in Grünheide, the first customers should receive the Tesla cars.
CEO Elon Musk is expected to do so.
Grünheide - An opening ceremony should be planned for employees.
The information platform “Teslarati” reported on the delivery schedules on Sunday.
The "Tagesspiegel" reported at the beginning of March that an opening ceremony was planned for March 22nd.

Tesla factory in Brandenburg is about to be approved
The state of Brandenburg approved the construction of Tesla's first electric car factory in Europe on March 4.
The car factory is already there.
It was built by Tesla through around 20 early approvals at its own risk.
Musk originally wanted to start production on July 1, 2021 in Grünheide.
The approval process was delayed, however, because Tesla added a battery factory to the application for the factory, which meant that critics had to be heard again.
The notice lists over 400 conditions, including drinking water, keeping the air clean and dealing with incidents.
Environmental organizations and local residents fear negative consequences for the environment and water.
