Tesla Optimus output up nearly 10-fold but hand assembly emerges as bottleneck

Tesla has lifted production of its humanoid robot Optimus by nearly 10-fold, but the hand assembly process has emerged as a key bottleneck as it scales up. Output has risen from dozens a week to hundreds, with a target of 1,000 a week by year-end and a long-term internal goal of 20,000. The Optimus V3 is built in Fremont, but broader commercialisation remains constrained by hand precision, durability, supply and assembly stability, and AI training levels.
