Elon Musk outlines path for Tesla from $1.5T valuation toward $100T target

On February 8, 2026, Elon Musk said taking Tesla from its current $1.5 trillion market value to $100 trillion would require an extraordinary amount of work and luck. He linked this upside to robotaxis, Optimus humanoid robots, and expanding energy storage, while Wall Street forecasts multi‑trillion‑dollar markets for autonomous technology and robotics. Critics argue Tesla's valuation already prices in huge future success, pointing to regulatory setbacks and delays in robotaxi and Optimus deployments.
