Elon Musk said he expects the Optimus robot and Cybercab driverless vehicle to account for the vast majority of Tesla’s future value, rather than conventional car sales. That is his forecast, not a measured valuation.
The source says Cybercab carries riders in limited areas of Austin, Texas. Revenue from rides would depend on demand, costs and regulatory approval; Optimus’s commercial potential depends on reliable performance, affordable production and widespread adoption.
