Everything Announced at Tesla's 'We, Robot' Event

Autonomous Vehicles

Welcome, welcome to the we robot party. So we, we have uh we have quite a show for you tonight. I uh I think you're gonna like it. Uh, as you can see, I just arrived in the Robo Taxi, the Cyber cab and uh there's uh 20 more where that came from. So they've been traveling, they're all, there's no people in them as you can see the cars just going by with no people. Whoa. And we have, uh we have 50 fully autonomous cars here tonight. Uh So you'll see model wise and the Cyber cab, uh all driverless, uh you'll, you'll be able to take a ride in the cyber cab. There's no steering wheel or pedals. So I hope this goes. Well, I think the, the cost of autonomous transport will be so low that you can think of it like individualized mass transit. Um The like the average cost of, of a bus per mile for a city. Um, not, not the ticket price because that is subsidized, but the average price is about a dollar a mile. Whereas the, the cost of uh Cyber cab, uh, we, we think probably over time from the operating cost is probably going to be around 20 cents a mile. Um, and price including taxes and, and everything else probably ends up being 30 or 40 cents a mile. So, yes, and you will be able to buy one. Yes, exactly. Uh, and uh, we, we expect the cost to be below $30,000. We do expect actually to, to start uh, fully autonomous, unsupervised F SS D uh in Texas and California next year. And that, that's obviously that's with the model three and model Y and then we, we, we expect to be in production with the, the cyber cab that which is really um highly optimized for autonomous transport uh in probably, well, I tend to be a little optimistic with time frames. Um but, but in, in, in 2026. So yeah, before 2027 let me put it that way. When you, when you get in, you'll see like it's really quite a wild experience to just be in a car with no steering wheel, no pedals, no controls. And it feels great. Something we're also doing is uh and it's really high time we did. This is uh inductive charging. So the rubber taxi has no plug. It, it just uh goes over the inductive charger and charges. So yeah, it's kind of how it should be. Oh, and D also what, what, what, what happens if you need a vehicle that is bigger than a model Y the, the Ivan, the Ivan is uh this is a, we, we're going to make this and it's gonna look like that. Now, can you imagine going down the streets and you see this coming toward you that be s so this can, this can carry up to 20 people and it can also uh transport goods so you can config it for goods, transport within a city uh or transport of up to 20 people at a time. So this is gonna, the Revo is what's gonna solve for high density. So if you, if you want to take a sports team somewhere or um you're looking to, to really get to the cost of travel down to, I don't know, 510 cents a mile, then you can use the Revo. Some people call it the robot van. But uh speaking of robots, so everything we've developed for our cars, the batteries, power electronics, uh the advanced motors, gearboxes, the, the software, the uh the A I and burns computer, it all actually applies to a humanoid robot. It's the same techniques. It's just a robot with arms and legs instead of a robot with, with wheels. And we've made a lot of progress with the optimist. And uh as you can see, we, we started up with someone um in a robot suit, uh sort of that and then we've progressed dram dramatically year after year. So if you extrapolate this, you're really gonna have something spectacular something that anyone could own. Um So you can have your own personal R two D two C three po and I think at scale the, the, you know, this would cost something like, I don't know, 20 $30,000 probably less, less than a car is my prediction. Long term, you know, take us a minute to get to the long term. But um but fundamentally at scale of the optimus robot, you should be able to, to buy an optimus robot for, I think probably 20 to $30,000 long term. So, and, and, and what can it do? It can, it'll be able to do anything you want. So it can, um, be a teacher babysit your kids, it can walk your dog, mow your lawn, get the groceries, just be your friend, serve drinks, um, whatever you can think of it will do. And, yeah, it's gonna be awesome. And I think this will be the biggest product ever of any kind.
