Q2 Shareholder Update → https://t.co/u0UcDOuMNa
Highlights
– Cybercab began production at Gigafactory Texas
– Tesla Semi remains on track for volume production this year at our new factory in Nevada
– Making continued progress with battery pack capacity expansion (the main limiting factor to near-term vehicle production volume increase)
– Megafactory Texas is nearing completion (start of production planned for this year)
– More customers are now opting to subscribe to FSD at the time of vehicle purchase!
– Robotaxi rollout continued in the US. Now live in 7 major metros
– Construction of Optimus at Fremont Factory began after decommissioning the Model S & X lines. Planned production later this year
From here, there remains much hard work as we aim to revolutionize transportation, energy and productivity through our leading real-world AI. Scaling will be non-linear and we are focused on long-term value creation.
We’ve never been more optimistic about the future.
Automotive
– Record deliveries in several markets: South Korea, Australia, Colombia, Japan, Taiwan, Thailand, Portugal, the Philippines, Chile, Slovenia & Lithuania
– We launched the Model YL in the US in July and have seen a positive response from customers
Energy generation and storage
– Record energy storage deployments in EMEA, supported by record deployments from Megafactory Shanghai, which continues to ramp production
– On track to begin production of Megapack 3 & Megablock this year at our new Megafactory Texas
– Powerwall 3P (three-phase) is now available in Germany and is designed to meet the power needs of German homes with a single unit
Robotics
– Installing the first-generation lines for Optimus at Fremont Factory, where we expect to start production soon
– The initial Optimus builds will be used in our Optimus Academy for training data collection and further functionality development
– Additionally, we continued site development at Gigafactory Texas with building construction now in full swing
AI Training Compute
– More than doubled our onsite compute in Texas (in terms of MW of compute) during the first half of 2026
– Cortex 2 supports the development of both vehicle and humanoid robot autonomy software & will ramp further over the rest of the year
Battery
– Ramping new battery & material factories, including vehicle pack capacity in Berlin, cathode material production and lithium refining in Texas and LFP cells in Nevada for our energy storage products
– Increasing production of 4680 cells to support ramping Cybercab & Tesla Semi plus increased production of Model Y
Other Supporting Infrastructure
– Added over 2,400 net new Supercharging stalls, growing the network by 17% year-over-year
AI Software
– Started rolling out FSD v14 lite to early-access customers in the US & South Korea with AI3 hardware
This software build distills the driving behavior from AI4’s v14 series into both the camera & compute configuration of AI3, bringing destination options & speed profiles. It also addresses challenging driving scenarios with improved proactive & reactive responsiveness
AI Inference Compute
– Making progress on construction & equipment procurement for our semiconductor fab in Austin
Automotive and Other Software
– Rolled out Summer Release:
Self-Driving stats are now available in the mobile app
Grok can make phone calls, search & play music, and adjust climate controls, among other things
Automatic Navigation expands beyond home & work to support any destination based on personal habits and schedule
Robotaxi
– Started production of Cybercab, our purpose-built autonomous EV designed to be the workhorse of our Robotaxi fleet
– Began offering employee rides in Cybercabs on our GFTX campus in July
– Preparing for expansion of our Robotaxi service to additional US metros: testing, permitting & first responder training
– Expanded unsupervised rides to the entire Austin metro area & launched unsupervised rides in Miami, Orlando & Tampa in July
FSD Supervised
– Record net new subscriptions in Q2
– Record FSD attach rates in North America, with over half of new deliveries including FSD subscriptions
– Received additional approvals in Lithuania, Estonia, Denmark & Belgium, with customers in these countries driving over 50 million kilometers (31 million miles) on FSD as of July
Robotaxi status (July 2026):
• Unsupervised ramping in Austin, Dallas, Houston
• Just launched unsupervised in Miami, Orlando, and Tampa
• Preparations underway in Phoenix and Las Vegas
• Cybercab production already started
Seven major metros. Expanding fast.
FSD 14.3.6 is out!
Ran my regular Los Gatos loop to the Apple Store, Starbucks, and McDonald’s.
Everything was clean except parking — still the main weak spot.
Let me know what you think. @elonmusk@tesla_na@Tesla_AI

Additional preflight testing on Super Heavy complete. Now starting preparations to launch Starship as soon as tomorrow, Thursday, July 23. Weather is currently a significant watch item for launch
During its 32 missions, this single first stage has launched critical supplies and research to the @space_station, supported 27 @Starlink missions to help connect people around the world with high-speed, low-latency internet, and more since its first launch in December 2021
The runs were plentiful last night!
