Tesla Converts Fremont Auto Line for Optimus, Targets 1M Annual Capacity
Tesla is rapidly shifting its manufacturing resources toward its humanoid robot business. A recently released video confirms that Tesla dismantled the existing Model S and Model X production lines at its Fremont factory in just 46 days to make room for the Optimus assembly line. This move marks a tangible new phase in Tesla's robotics business as it prepares for mass production.
Key Details and Capacity Targets
According to multiple sources, the teardown and conversion of the production line took 46 days. The repurposed space will be dedicated to manufacturing the Optimus humanoid robot. Tesla indicated that once this new line fully ramps up, the targeted annual production capacity for the area is 1 million Optimus units. Commenters like @rohanpaul_ai noted that this rapid shift from auto manufacturing to robot production highlights Tesla's determination and execution efficiency in pushing Optimus to mass production.
