Gigafactory Nevada expansion — combined $3.6B / 3,000-job commitment covering both a new high-volume Tesla Semi truck factory and an on-site 4680 battery-cell factory. Tesla did not disclose a facility-level split between the two components; figures retained here as announced (combined) and counted only once in the Automotive category to avoid double counting.
