Tesla’s sales in several key European markets continue to decline sharply in Q2 2025, despite the new Model Y, which was blamed for disappointing sales in the first quarter, now being available.
Over the past couple of years, Tesla’s sales in Europe have been declining.
In 2024, Tesla delivered 11% fewer vehicles in Europe compared to 2023 – despite having ramped up production at its Gigafactory Berlin, where it produces Model Ys for the European market.
While this was already a bad sign for Tesla, sales started to decline at a much sharper rater in 2025 compared to an already bad 2024.
Good
Good.
I love to see the plans of evil mfers fail occasionally. It’s good for the soul.
Doesn’t mean much. He’s corruptioned himself into enough GovCo contracts to stay the richest man in the world forever. Not to mention all the theft with Doge.
But it is good to see Tesla’s decline.
That’s because it’s not about the car, new model or not.
Buy the new body style and we know you bought it after Elon went full Nazi.
I expect the new models to be harmful to sales.
Because tesla rarely makes changes to their cars year over year, you can buy a tesla now and have one that looks like you bought it before elon publicly went off the deep end. There’s still plausible deniability with most of their models.
But now, anyone buying a model Y is getting a car that obviously could only have been purchased during trump’s second term. There’s no plausible deniability. The distinctive front and rear light bars scream:
“I chose to buy this car after watching the CEO do the nazi salute twice on national television.”
Never thought of that, but this is a very good point IMO.
It’s not until the last sentence of the article that they acknowledge what’s most likely the actual cause for the rapid fall off in sales.
Tesla is being squeezed out of the European market, in large part due to most consumers’ dislike for its CEO.
Tesla’s get the side eye get grimace looks in their largest markets. See a Tesla car or Y and it’s at a minimum you think that’s sad if they bought that years ago and now drive around with that stigma. See a truck and you don’t want to meet the driver. Tesla’s are social poison now
Excellent news
Good.
Y, the last model
English is 2nd language, so it took me a second to realize that being the last model, would mean there will never be another one from Tesla!! 😋
Y would anyone in the EU buy one when there are so many better and cheaper options available to them? Musk even said on the latest earnings call that the cars aren’t the profit motive and his blueman group extra will be the future of robotics. Ignoring the fact that Optimus is decades behind the competition and with the Trump Tariffs will be impossible to build in the US…
