Elon Musk: "80% of Tesla's value will come from Optimus!"

On October 1, the South Korean media outlet "Today's Finance" published an article stating that Tesla's CEO Elon Musk unveiled a new overall plan and predicted that the human-like robot "Optimus" he has not yet released may account for 80% of Tesla's market value in the future. However, his plan has been severely criticized, with some calling it nonsense.

Recently, Musk announced on social media X, "About 80% of Tesla's value will come from Optimus."

Last mid-year, he predicted that Optimus would make Tesla a company with a market value of $25 trillion.

However, due to competition from Chinese low- and mid-priced electric vehicle manufacturers, aging electric vehicle product lines, and Elon Musk's political controversies, Tesla's sales have been sluggish for several quarters.

Regarding this, Musk emphasized his vision for humanoid robots and AI-driven autonomous taxis, saying "Looking to the future." At the second-quarter earnings call in July, he also said, "Tesla is the global leader in the field of real-world artificial intelligence."

Nevertheless, in both the autonomous taxi and humanoid robot fields, Tesla is not competitive.

Tesla's autonomous taxi has not even started formal testing in San Francisco yet.
