Tesla's 'We, Robot' Event: Everything Revealed in 8 Minutes

[Applause] [Music] w [Music] [Applause] [Music] welcome welcome to the Wii robot [Music] party so we have uh we have quite a show for you tonight I think I think you're going to like it uh as you can see I just arrived in the robot taxi the Cyber cab and uh there's 20 more where that came [Applause] from so they've been traveling they're all there's no people in them as you can see the cars is just going by with no people 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 c cap there's no steering wheel or pedals [Music] [Applause] 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 can we buy one so yes and you will be able to buy [Applause] one yes exactly U and uh we expect the cost to be below $30,000 [Applause] we do expect actually to to start a fully autonomous unsupervised FSD uh in Texas and California next year and that that's obviously that's with the model 3 and

model Y and then we we we expect to be in production with the the Cyber cap that which is really um highly optimized for a us 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 uh also what what what what happens if you need a vehicle that uh is bigger than a model y [Applause] the the Roven the Roven is uh this is a we we're going to make this and it's going to look like that now can you imagine going down the streets and you see this coming towards you that be

sick so this this can carry up to 20 people and it can also uh transport Goods so you can can fa good for goods transport within a city uh or transport of up to 20 people at a time so this is going to the Roven is what's going to 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 uh the cost of travel down to I don't know 5 10 cents a mile then you can use the Roven some people call it

the robo van but uh speaking of [Applause] robots so everything we've developed for our cars the batteries Power Electronics uh the advanced Motors gearboxes the the software the uh the AI inference computer it all actually applies to a humanoid robot so the same techniques it's just a robot with arms and legs instead of a robot with with wheels and uh We've made a lot of progress with the Optimus 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 progress dramatically year after

year so if you extrapolate this you're really going to have something spectacular something that anyone could own um so you can have your own personal R2D2 [Music] C3PO and I think at scale the you know this would cost something like I don't know 20 $330,000 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 the Optimus robot you should be able to buy an Optimus robot for I think probably 20 to $30,000 long to him so and

and and what can it do it can it'll basically do anything you want so it can um be a teacher babysit your kids it can walk your dog mow your loan get the groceries just be your friend serve drinks um whatever you can think of it will do and yeah it's going to be awesome and I I I think this will be the biggest product ever of any kind
