From what I gather the general workflow is similar, but there were apparently specific customizations needed to deal with the fact that Tesla body panels aren't magnetic; apparently most car assembly lines use magnetic arms to move panels from one part of the line to another, because most car bodies are made of steel. I think Tesla uses a mix of suction and clamps instead, depending on the part.
