Elon Musk Bets Tesla's Future on Optimus Robot Project

TapTechNews June 14th, Elon Musk, in the general shareholders' meeting held today, bet Tesla's future on the Optimus robot project, which will drive up Tesla's company valuation by tens of trillions of US dollars.

Musk said that Tesla's super factory will deploy more than 1000 Optimus robots next year, but he postponed the recently announced schedule.

Musk boasted at the shareholders' meeting that Tesla's company market value will be 10 times that of the current most valuable company, and TapTechNews checked the latest market value situation today:

Apple's market capitalization is 3.29 trillion US dollars (currently about 23.88 trillion yuan).

Microsoft's market capitalization is 3.28 trillion US dollars (currently about 23.81 trillion yuan).

Nvidia's market capitalization is 3.19 trillion US dollars (currently about 23.15 trillion yuan).

Therefore, Musk's goal is to drive Tesla's market value to more than 30 trillion US dollars (TapTechNews note: currently about 217.76 trillion yuan).

Musk said that the current humanoid robot market has an annual production of 1 billion units, and Tesla will at least occupy 10% of the share in the future.

Musk said that Tesla mass-produces robots at a price of about 10,000 US dollars per unit and sells them at a price of 20,000 US dollars, thus obtaining 1 trillion US dollars in profit.

Tesla recently announced that there are currently 2 Optimus robots working independently in the super factory, and Musk recently said that he expects Tesla to sell robots to customers next year.

Musk believes that by 2026, Optimus will become a completely software-customized robot.
