Tesla engineers have described the next-generation Optimus V3 as nearing human-like functionality and form factor ahead of mass production. They envision it looking like a human in a superhero suit rather than a traditional robot.
Tesla engineers provided insights into the development of the next-gen Optimus V3, focusing on its hand design during recent comments. Speaking on the transition to generation 3 and mass production, one engineer stated, “As we go into gen-3 and into mass production, we are getting very close to human functionality and form factor. It won't even look like a robot. It will look like a human in a superhero suit. It will be something revolutionary.” These remarks highlight Tesla's ambitions for its humanoid robot project, Optimus, aiming for seamless integration into human environments through advanced mimicry of natural movements and appearance. The updates come as Tesla advances toward broader deployment of the technology.
