Brandenburg Confirms Talks With China’s Dreame on Potential EV Plant Near Tesla Site

Officials offer no details, with experts urging caution over unverified scale or financing claims.

Overview

  • Ministerpräsident Dietmar Woidke said there are talks with Dreame about a possible Brandenburg factory but disclosed no commitments on site, timing or incentives.
  • Dreame states it is evaluating a location near Tesla’s Grünheide plant after a CEO-led visit, citing the region’s supplier base and expected logistics savings.
  • The company plans a CES 2026 prototype and a 2027 market debut, claims a team of about 1,000, and has shared hypercar renderings likened by media to a Bugatti.
  • Reports of a BNP Paribas partnership, a plant larger than Tesla’s and a 2027 completion are not corroborated by authorities or confirmed beyond secondary coverage.
  • Citizen and nature groups warn about water demand, land use and transparency, while local officials point to only preliminary industrial land designations near Fürstenwalde along the A12 corridor.
