I'd be glad to be wrong! But according to [1] LG's factory might get to 3 GWh output in a few years. At 60 KWh per Bolt that is 50,000 cars, in a few years.

Tesla is planning 150GWh eventually, but starting at least in the 10's of GWh's to start. Lets say 30. At 30 GWh that is potentially 500,000 Model 3s.

Obviously, this is all speculative on both sides. Let me know if my calculations are off or I missed something.

LG has other battery factories for EVs. One in Poland, one in China, some in Korea... Also, since the Faraday Future project seems to be tanking, and LG built up battery capacity for that, they probably have some extra capacity.

China is building about 100,000 electric buses a year. That's where the batteries are going right now.
