Tesla is weeks away from significant announcements related to cell manufacturing and improvements.

Tesla has placed an order for battery-making machines with Korea’s Hanwha on the road to building its own battery cells.

We previously reported on Tesla’s secret Roadrunner project, which consists of Tesla developing its own battery cell production with the goal to bring the cost below $100 per kWh on a massive scale.

The plan is expected to be announced in a few weeks at Tesla’s Battery Day event.

Last week, Musk hinted at Tesla announcing a ‘Terafactory’ for terawatt-hours of battery production.

It’s unclear where the production would happen.
