The new lane is reportedly meant to boost the efficiency of Elon Musk's EV-manufacturing related traffic, allowing Tesla suppliers to circumvent waits.
A sign emblazoned with Tesla’s logo in all-caps now sits above one of the multiple lanes on the Mexico side of the Colombia Solidarity Border Crossing, which spans the Rio Grande between the Mexican state of Nuevo León and Webb County, Texas. The lane is intended to allow Tesla Inc. suppliers to cross the border more quickly, and avoid waits, Ivan Rivas, Nuevo León’s economic minister, told Bloomberg.
“It was a simple incentive,” Rivas said to Bloomberg. “What we want is a crossing that’s much more expedited and efficient. And maybe there will be a lane for other companies in the future like there is for Tesla.” Rivas, and multiple other Mexican officials did not immediately respond to Gizmodo’s request for comment. Tesla also did not immediately respond to our request for comment.However, Gizmodo was able to get in touch with U.S. Customs and Border Patrol.
CBP would not be able to speak on behalf of the Government of Mexico or anything on the Mexico side of the Colombia-Solidarity International Bridge. I checked with Laredo U.S. Customs and Border Protection trade operations management, and aside from the Free and Secure Trade program and the dedicated lane for FAST participants, and the normal northbound cargo lanes, that is all that is available for northbound commercial trucks.Up to $200 Samsung Credit—Reserve the Next Galaxy Smartphone, Watch, and Buds for FreeThe next Samsung Unpacked event is happening on August 10 with new announcements across their Galaxy lineup of products.
At least six Tesla suppliers are located in Nuevo León, an increase up from zero prior to 2021, Rivas told Bloomberg. But, it is unclear if the lane is only for suppliers. An image of the crossing published by Bloomberg shows a passenger SUV going through the Tesla lane. So, is the dedicated crossing also for Tesla employees? What about people simply driving Tesla cars? What sort of verification does one present to pass through the lane? All also unclear.
