<\/figure>\nElon Musk\u2019s official announcement on Tesla Optimus 3<\/h2>\n
It was at the Abundance Summit that Elon Musk officially confirmed the launch of production of the Tesla Optimus 3<\/strong> for summer 2026. Musk describes Tesla Optimus 3<\/strong> as \u201cthe world\u2019s most advanced humanoid robot\u201d, surpassing all competitors, whether Boston Dynamics, Figure AI or the numerous Chinese projects. Production will start with low volumes during the pilot phase, before a gradual ramp-up expected in 2027.<\/p>\n The Tesla Optimus 3<\/strong> made its first official public appearance at AWE 2026 in Shanghai on 12 March 2026. This international exhibition allowed the general public and robotics professionals to witness first-hand the capabilities of the humanoid robot and its ultra-detailed hands.

Following electric vehicles and energy storage with Tesla Energy, robotics represents the company\u2019s third pillar. Tesla is already using early versions of Optimus in its own factories, notably the Texas Gigafactory, for handling and assembly tasks. This real-world experience helps accelerate the robot\u2019s learning through reinforcement learning.

Tesla is expected to produce a few hundred units in 2026, before aiming for thousands and then tens of thousands of units per year from 2027\u20132028.<\/p>\n The retail price of the Tesla Optimus 3<\/strong> has not yet been officially announced, but Elon Musk has mentioned a long-term target of under $20,000 per unit. The first deliveries will be to Tesla\u2019s own factories, before wider commercialisation around 2027. Analysts estimate that the global humanoid robotics market could reach $38 billion by 2035, and Tesla, thanks to its strengths in AI, batteries and large-scale manufacturing, is perfectly positioned to dominate this emerging market.<\/p>\n At GreenDrive<\/strong>, specialists in Tesla accessories since 2019, we support Tesla owners every step of the way.
