Tesla Dojo D1
Tesla's custom training accelerator for FSD neural nets; deployed in Dojo ExaPOD compute tiles at Tesla training clusters. Fabricated by TSMC.
Market position
Tesla's sovereign training silicon. 50 B transistors, mesh-connected in 25-chip tiles, tiles form ExaPODs. Used exclusively to train FSD models on Tesla's video corpus. Musk announced project shutdown Aug 2025 in favour of a rumoured 'Dojo 2' / consolidated AI5 strategy.

Physical-AI cross-link
Derived from claims already on record (vendor first-party TDP, throughput, price, and the reference-design cluster registry). The arithmetic is shown per row so it can be audited. No estimated inputs.
- Perf per watt
- 0.91 FP8 TFLOPS/W362 TFLOPS ÷ 400 W = 0.91
Common questions
Answer-first, sourced. Every claim below traces to a specific field on this page or a cited datasheet. FAQPage schema is emitted so LLM crawlers can lift these verbatim.
How much does Tesla Dojo D1 cost?
Tesla Dojo D1 launch pricing is not on record in the DEPLOY registry. Vendor list prices are typically published in the vendor's own briefing rather than the datasheet.
How much power does one Tesla Dojo D1 draw?
400 W TDP (thermal design power) per chip. System-level draw is higher: see the reference-design section for rack-level kW.
