Sadly the museum is inside the factory, so you cannot visit it at your own leisure, and we were rushed through it. I had to take pictures of the displays to read them later, kind of sad. I hope they find a way to fix this later.

Then, we got a tour of the assembly line, where as usual no pictures were allowed, and on the way out, we got to see a few technology demo cars:

And after 90m, the tour was over. It was a nice visit, even if (again) it was a shame that the museum tour was rushed due to being part of the guided tour where you wouldn't wonder off or stay longer:
