Gigafactory Texas will see production of Tesla robot at 'much higher volume' than California
The Austin automaker picked a California plant to produce Optimus 3. But Tesla's next-gen Optimus 4 humanoid will be produced in Texas, Elon Musk says.
Tesla is in the process of sunsetting two of its oldest cars, the Model X and Model S. Will the discontinuation lead to higher resale values?
Instead, the company focused on its best-selling SUV and sedan, the Model Y, and Model 3, while sales of the Model S and X dwindled. When reporting sales, Tesla lumps all of its premium models together in the "other models" category, and in the last quarter of 2025, it sold only 11,642 of these, a 51 percent year-over-year decrease.
Tesla Model S and X face production end in 2026, but rarity, performance, and historical significance could boost collector value over time.
