A dedicated Optimus factory at Gigafactory Texas is under construction on the North Campus. Drone footage shows the first steel structure erected at the new facility. Phase two of land reclamation is progressing, enabling the building to extend nearly the full length of the main Giga Texas factory, potentially exceeding 4,000 feet, with a width reduction of roughly 50 to 70 meters. Extensive foundation work is also underway. The Optimus plant is a central part of a broader North Campus expansion that will add more than 5.2 million square feet of industrial space. Tesla plans to build up to 10 million Optimus units annually once completed, supported by a phased manufacturing strategy.
"Big news at the new Optimus 10m/y factory construction site today! The 1st steel structure has been erected & as expected the second phase of land reclamation is underway. This will allow this new factory to grow to nearly the same length as the main Giga Texas factory,... pic.twitter.com/FidRLV6XpU"
"Phase two of land reclamation is advancing steadily, and the progress will let the new building extend nearly the full length of the main Giga Texas factory, potentially exceeding 4,000 feet, while measuring somewhere between 50 and 70 meters narrower. Extensive foundation work is proceeding as well."
"This facility forms a central element of Tesla's broader North Campus expansion at Giga Texas. The project will add more than 5.2 million square feet of new industrial space. It sits alongside other advanced developments, including a Terafab for next-gen AI chips. The scale reflects Tesla's commitment to transforming humanoid robotics into a core pillar of the company's future."
"Tesla plans to build about 10 million robots at the site annually once it is completed, which would be about 27,000 units each day. The Optimus plant at Giga Texas is part of Tesla's phased strategy for Optimus manufacturing."
