Tesla has started producing its first Optimus humanoid robots. However, Elon Musk expects it to take around a year to reach full production capacity and begin deliveries to external customers. During the third-quarter 2026 financial results presentation, the CEO confirmed \u201cinitial production on a high-volume line\u201d<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Tesla also stated in its Q3 shareholder document that the robots coming from this line are the first Optimus units built to production standards<\/strong>, marking an important step beyond earlier prototypes and units used internally for development.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Optimus enters production in Fremont<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The new Optimus production line occupies part of the space freed up after the Model S and Model X lines in Fremont were dismantled<\/strong>. Tesla completed that work in just 46 days during the summer. The line now being ramped up is designed for a capacity of around one million robots per year<\/strong>. Tesla also plans an even larger facility at Gigafactory Texas, with potential capacity of ten million units per year<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Initial production will use Optimus Gen 3<\/strong>, designed as the first model intended for large-scale manufacturing. However, Tesla plans to switch to the next generation, Optimus Gen 4, when Texas production reaches scale<\/strong>. According to the CEO, growth will follow a typical S-curve: relatively slow and uneven initially, partly because the project is still evolving.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When will the first Optimus robots reach customers?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

According to Musk, Tesla should be able to resolve the main remaining issues concerning artificial intelligence, electromechanical systems, reliability and durability by the end of 2027<\/strong>. The first customers are expected to be mainly industrial businesses<\/strong>, where the robot could perform repetitive, hazardous or continuously required tasks<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Home use would follow later<\/strong>, once production is high enough for Tesla to also serve consumers. Musk remains particularly optimistic about the project, describing Optimus as a product that could become the most important ever made<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A new video could arrive soon<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Another significant development could come in the next few months. Musk said Tesla might release a new Optimus video within one or two months<\/strong>. This time, the aim would be to show something more meaningful than a pre-prepared demonstration: the robot would carry out tasks that had not been fully programmed in advance, offering a more concrete demonstration of its AI capabilities<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Meanwhile, information leaked in recent weeks has already offered a glimpse of the production version\u2019s design. Optimus Gen 3 is expected to have a cleaner appearance, new joint covers and more human-like hands with 22 degrees of freedom.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Optimus also awaits the new AI5 chip<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

One of the next major upgrades concerns artificial intelligence. Tesla plans to integrate its new AI5 chip<\/strong> into Optimus, which Musk said could happen around April 2027<\/strong>. AI5 is expected to offer around five times the computing capacity<\/strong> of a complete system based on two AI4 chips. Greater processing power will be particularly important for Optimus, which must manage far more degrees of freedom than are needed to control a Tesla car.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The AI5 chip has already entered trial production at Samsung\u2019s Texas facility, while mass production is planned for next year<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The commercial debut is still some way off<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The start of production is undoubtedly an important step for Tesla and Optimus, but does not mean the robot will soon be available to buy<\/strong>. If Musk\u2019s timeline is met, the first Optimus robots for external customers should arrive towards the end of 2027<\/strong>, initially for industrial applications.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
