Just how much will Panasonic throw down on the table when it comes time to invest in Tesla’s new Gigafactory near Reno, Nev.? According to CEO Kazuhiro Tsuga, “tens of billions” of yen.
Reuters reports Tsuga didn’t think the current exchange rate — which knocks his investment quote down to tens, if not hundreds, of millions of dollars — was “bad,” so long as the exchange remained stable.
As reported earlier this year, Panasonic wants the Gigafactory all to itself, investing in all levels of production at the upcoming plant. The battery producer also agreed to manufacture lithium ion cells for Tesla’s and other manufacturers’ battery packs as part of the overall investment deal.
