Tesla established its first Optimus humanoid robot production line at the Fremont factory. Lars Moravy, VP of Vehicle Engineering, confirmed the transition from development to manufacturing. CEO Elon Musk shared a photo of the newly installed line to signal active ramp-up activities.

Tesla plans to deploy thousands of Optimus units within its own factories before a wider commercial release. This move supports an investor narrative prioritizing Tesla’s future in AI and robotics.

Positive market sentiment currently offsets mixed vehicle sales reports. Tesla recorded strong sales growth in parts of Europe. Conversely, vehicle sales declined in the United States and Norway.
