Brian Wang Tesla Cybercab will start production in April 2026 and will start with one car produced every ten seconds. This could eventually ramp to 2-3 million per year for what would have been a 500k car per year production line.

The Tesla AI 5 chip will have one third of the energy use, similar compute power to a B200. It will be at 10% of the cost. It will be a great chip for the Tesla AI software stack. They may have to make a Tesla Terafab because they will need more chips than Samsung and TSMC can make. BTW: They will need to make the Terafabs on the moon and Mars so that the lower cost manufacturing of chips can happen there for Space Based AI.
