Tesla requires suppliers to avoid China-made parts for US cars, WSJ reports

(Reuters) -Tesla is now requiring its suppliers to exclude China-made components in the manufacturing of its cars in the U.S., the Wall Street Journal reported on Friday. Tesla and its suppliers have already replaced some China-made components with parts made elsewhere. Tesla is aiming to switch all other components to those made outside of China in the next year or two, the report said, citing people familiar with the situation. Reuters could not immediately verify the report. (Reporting by Harshita Meenaktshi in Bengaluru, Editing by Louise Heavens)
