Kim Kardashian shows off her new futuristic ‘Tesla Robot Buddy’ (video)

Kim Kardashian has acquired a new Tesla robot.

On Monday, Nov. 18, the SKIMS founder posted a video to X (formerly known as Twitter) of her new Tesla robot.

“meet my new friend @Tesla,” she captioned the video.

In the clip, Kardashian, 44, asked the Tesla robot, “Can you do this? I love you?” as she makes one half of a hand heart. When the robot completes it, she gasps, adding, “You know how to do that?”

In a separate clip shared to her Instagram Stories, Kim taught the robot how to blow a kiss and won a game of Rock, Paper, Scissors.

“You’re so cute!” she exclaimed, when the robot blew her a kiss.

The robot can also be seen mimicking running, waving, and doing the “Raise the Roof” dance.

In later clips on her Instagram Stories, Kim shows off a second Tesla robot in gold, as well as a gold Tesla Cybercab, which has yet to hit the market. It’s unclear if any of the Tesla products are personal purchases or if Kardashian, who owns a Tesla Cybertruck, was just given the opportunity to test them out.

Production of the Tesla Gen 2 humanoid robot, also known as Optimus, will be in full swing by 2026, according to CEO Elon Musk, though Tesla may be using them internally as early as next year. Once available, Tesla bot’s may cost between $20,000 to $30,000.
