Tesla stock expected to rise up to 33% as it shifts focus to AI and robotics, says Wall Street analysts.

Despite Tesla stock dropping nearly 17% in 2026 so far, Wall Street analysts remain optimistic about its future. UBS raised its 12-month price target to $391 with a 'Hold' rating, while Yorkville Ives initiated a 'Buy' rating with a $500 target, anticipating over 33% growth. The bullish outlook is driven by Tesla's strategic shift from a traditional automaker to a leader in AI, robotics, and high-margin sectors like Full Self-Driving and energy products. Analysts expect Tesla to benefit from innovations like the Optimus humanoid robot and expanding energy infrastructure, with an average 12-month price target around $396, signaling a moderate buy and potential 5% rise over the next year.

Tesla shares are currently trading at $374.56 on Pluang as of Oct 08, 2026 20:42 WIB, down slightly by 0.81% for the day. This price sits closer to its 52-week low of $298.16 than its high of $489.88, highlighting the recent volatility despite analysts' optimistic 12-month price targets around $396. The stock's market cap stands at $1.49 trillion, with a balanced order activity of 53% buy and 47% sell, reflecting mixed investor sentiment at this price level.
