In less than 19 hours, Tesla will hold an exceptional conference, rich in issues for its future. What to expect?
This Thursday, October 10, at 7:00 p.m. California time (4:00 a.m. French time on the night of Thursday to Friday) Tesla is organizing its “We, Robot” event at the Warner Bros. studio. The highly anticipated star is the fully autonomous mobile unit better known as Robotaxi. Last April, Tesla CEO Elon Musk had promised this presentation for August 8 but ultimately had to postpone it by 2 months in order to make some “design changes” to the machine. Basically he wasn’t ready. Now it appears to be and the company is ready to reveal it to the public. It’s really about time because big rival Waymo is already on the launch pad with Hyundai.
If you don’t have the means to go to California, you can still follow the presentation tonight on Tesla’s X page (ex Twitter).
In addition to this autonomous car, there is a good chance that Tesla’s humanoid robot Optimus will be in the spotlight, as suggested by the title of the event “We, Robot” which needs no translation. Musk has already said he wants to see them hiring at his Tesla and Space X factories as early as 2025.
But investors and analysts especially expect a low-cost car from the manufacturer. This key market for the electric transition is the future of the automobile in the short term and Tesla had promised them a Model 2 for less than 25,000 euros for 2024 before putting the project on hold. At the very least, it will be necessary to explain why autonomous driving is a priority. Answer in a few hours at the end of a show that promises to be colorful!
