The
plant will be located in Santa Catarina in Monterrey city, the
capital of Nuevo Leon state in Mexico, the report said, citing
people familiar with the matter.
Final details are still being worked out, and the talks with the
company have involved both the state government and Mexico's
foreign relations ministry, the report said.
It is unclear what models Tesla would produce in the Mexican
factory or when it would begin production, Bloomberg said.
Details could be announced in coming days, it said.
Tesla did not immediately respond to a Reuters request for
comment.
Two people with knowledge of the matter told Reuters in October
that Tesla Chief Executive Elon Musk was considering investing
in the northern Mexican state of Nuevo Leon, which borders
Texas.
Musk held a meeting in the state with Nuevo Leon Governor Samuel
Garcia along with other local officials, and Ken Salazar, the
U.S. ambassador to Mexico, one of the sources said.
