The invitation reportedly states, "Join us for We, Robot — our official unveiling of the future of autonomy."
Elon Musk posted on his X account earlier this week, stating, "This will be one for the history books." The post was accompanied by an image of the event announcement, which read, "We, Robot. 10.10 Los Angeles."
Event Venue and Details
Tesla has confirmed that the Robotaxi reveal will take place in Los Angeles, but the exact location has not been disclosed. There is speculation that the event may be hosted at the Warner Bros. studio in Burbank, but this has not been confirmed.
Tesla invited retail investors to enter a lottery for a chance to attend the event on September 10, with entries closing on September 17. The invitations were sent out on Wednesday, with only a select few investors chosen to attend in person.
To attend the Robotaxi reveal, investors must RSVP by October 6, as per the invitation. The tickets are non-transferable, and attendees must be 21 years of age or older. More details will be provided once the tickets are confirmed.
Event Schedule and Live Stream
The event is scheduled to begin at 7 p.m. on October 10 and will be live-streamed on Tesla’s social media platforms, including X and YouTube, as reported by Investors Business Daily.
The Robotaxi reveal, originally planned for August 8, was rescheduled to October 10 due to "important changes." Tesla's CEO, Elon Musk, hinted at additional product announcements during the event.
Expectations for the Event
According to Electrek, the Robotaxi is rumored to resemble the Cybertruck in design, lacking a steering wheel or pedals, and potentially being smaller in size. A prototype was seen being tested at the Warner Bros. lot. Tesla may also display its latest Optimus humanoid robots, emphasizing their autonomous features.
Analysts anticipate the unveiling of the latest version of Tesla’s Full Self-Driving (FSD) software and possibly a demonstration of a fully autonomous Robotaxi on a closed course. Deutsche Bank predicts that Tesla may also reveal its new low-cost vehicle, planned for launch next year.
