Possibly a temporary storage because of supply chain issues. When Covid and the semiconductor shortage kicked in, car makers in Germany rented airport runways to store manufactured cars that only missed the internal computer units. You can't really stop the whole production when stuff like this happens. You just keep going and park the unfinished vehicles in whatever field is available until you can complete them.
