Tesla is anticipated to begin accepting reservations for its Optimus robot in early December, as reported by The San Francisco Standard, citing Modar Alaoui, founder of the Humanoids Summit. This move suggests a potential consumer waitlist ahead of commercial deliveries, rather than an immediate launch of home robots.
The significance of this development lies in Tesla's strategy to gauge consumer interest while continuing its manufacturing and development efforts. The reported timeline aligns with the Humanoids Summit scheduled for December 1-2, where Tesla is expected to showcase Optimus V3 and conduct self-driving car demonstrations.
Tesla's plans for the reservation opening and the demonstration of Optimus V3 are still based on expectations, with no official announcement from the company. The details regarding payment requirements, retail pricing, and delivery schedules remain unresolved, indicating that further clarity will be necessary for prospective buyers as the December date approaches.
