Tesla shareholder meeting document confirms V3 Optimus is ready for mass production

Tesla submitted its 2026 annual shareholder meeting document to the US SEC. The cover lists that V3 Optimus is ready for mass production, the first written confirmation, but no production volume, price, or delivery timeline is given. Images in the document show that V3 has notable changes from V2.5 in three areas: the shoulder, wrist, and dexterous hand. The dexterous hand has 22 degrees of freedom, uses tendon-driven transmission, and is equipped with tactile sensors, accounting for about 20% of the whole unit's cost. The plan is to make the tactile sensing layer into a separately replaceable sensing glove.
