tesla sales collapsed in5 european markets

[Petzi]

Tesla recorded a decline in sales in five European countries in January. There were losses in the UK, France, Sweden, Norway and the Netherlands. Competitors had recently overtaken the US electric car manufacturer with newer vehicle models.

Tesla CEO Elon Musk also caused controversy with his vocal support for far-right parties in the UK and Germany on his X social media platform.

Tesla sales in the UK fell by almost twelve percent, despite monthly electric car registrations in Europe's largest market for battery electric vehicles rising to a record high, according to data from research organization New AutoMotive.

In France, Tesla sales slumped by 63 percent in the month under review, in Sweden and Norway by 44 percent and 38 percent respectively and in the Netherlands by 42 percent. In California, the largest US car market with more than 1.7 million vehicle registrations in 2024, Tesla sales also fell by twelve percent in January.

May be we should slap some tariffs on Tesla, see if that helps…

California is a very liberal state and this may be backlash to Musk's politics. Or perhaps its just that folks have found the Tesla to not be a very good car and now have more choices.

although the sales have dropped, they didn't have a lot of sales anyway. iirc it was like 1000 cars in sweden or something...very small.
but the market is still growing.
i think its bit of push back on musk and his nazi bs, along with competition. Damn near every MFR makes an EV now...so ppl have choices

Tesla stock will plummet as the brand has lost pace with the myriad of manufacturers making good electric cars.

Elon is odious and his inflated ego will make things much worse.

Sell them shares asap

Lets wait till Juniper is really on sale, guess 80% of their sales was Model Y, so this slowdown was to be expected, the question is will Jumiper sales pick up, so wait till May - June to see if this trend is holding

Let's also see if a particular person can stay out of European politics and can refrain from making certain gestures...

Earth is a has-been market. He is aiming for 100% market share on Mars.
