Elon Musk hopes to get first Tesla cars from Berlin plant in October

Plant has faced local public resistance due to environmental concerns

Tesla CEO Elon Musk: 'This plant's all about energy, green energy that's sustainable.'

Tesla hopes to make the first cars at its "gigafactory" in Gruenheide, near Berlin, in October or soon afterwards, chief executive Elon Musk has said. 

Tesla has pushed back the expected opening of the gigafactory to late 2021, blaming German bureaucratic hurdles. The plant has also faced local public resistance due to environmental concerns.
