- Production Speed Expectations: Musk indicated that initial production of the Cybercab will be very slow, with each unit taking over 10 seconds to produce, but as new processes are refined, production speeds are expected to significantly increase, potentially reaching very fast levels.
- Self-Driving Technology Commitment: Musk revealed that Tesla vehicles equipped with the AI4 chip will be able to run Unsupervised Full Self-Driving without needing additional upgrades, greatly enhancing Tesla's competitiveness in the autonomous driving market.
- Capital Efficiency Advantage: Analysts noted that Tesla is seven times more capital efficient than Waymo, with future plans allowing car owners to rent their personal vehicles to the Robotaxi fleet, providing strong support for Tesla's Robotaxi business.
- Market Reaction: Despite Tesla's stock price dropping 4.18% to $419.25 at market close on Tuesday, it rebounded slightly by 0.21% in after-hours trading, reflecting market anticipation for the upcoming Cybercab and Optimus robot.
