Tesla has secured $30 billion in new credit lines as the company looks to scale up production of its Cybercab autonomous vehicle and Optimus humanoid robot, according to a report from TechCrunch.
The automaker said it does not plan to draw on the new debt facilities during the current year, noting that it has already budgeted at least $25 billion in capital expenditures for its existing plans.
The new financing gives Tesla additional flexibility as it pursues capital-intensive projects beyond its core electric vehicle business, including the Cybercab robotaxi platform and the Optimus robot line, both of which the company has described as central to its long-term growth strategy.
Details of the credit facilities, including interest rates and the lenders involved, were not fully disclosed in initial reporting.
The move comes as Tesla continues to invest heavily in manufacturing capacity and new product lines, with investors watching closely how the company balances spending on emerging technologies against its traditional vehicle production.
