Utopia Talk / Politics / Tesla May Sales

williamthebastard Member	Tue Jun 03 09:12:27 LONDON, June 2 (Reuters) - Tesla's (TSLA.O), opens new tab car sales fell sharply in several European markets including Sweden and Portugal in May, a fifth consecutive monthly decline that has been blamed on CEO Elon Musk's political activities and an outdated model lineup. In Sweden, Tesla's new car sales plunged 53.7% in May from a year earlier, while in Portugal they were down 68%. Overall electric vehicle sales in both markets rose by almost a quarter in May. Tesla's sales were also down 30.5% in Denmark, 36% in the Netherlands and 19% in Spain, while data from PFA in France released on Sunday showed a 67% fall. In Sweden, for example, sales of Volkswagen's electric ID.7 were almost twice those of the Model Y. Tesla's mass-market Model 3 was also outsold in Sweden by electric models including Porsche's Macan, BYD's Seal and the G6 from Chinese EV maker Xpeng

williamthebastard Member	Thu Jun 05 02:14:57 Tesla sales in Germany dropped in May for the fifth month in a row, as demand for the electric vehicle maker continued to slide across much of Europe, despite Elon Musk’s efforts to turn his focus away from his U.S. government activities and back to his companies. Registrations of new Tesla cars in Germany, Europe’s largest car market, dropped more than a third from the same month last year, data released by the country’s Federal Motor Transport Authority, K.B.A., showed on Wednesday. Tesla sales in other European countries have also remained depressed, falling more than 67 percent in France and 29 percent in Spain in May. Mr. Musk has tried to downplay the extent of Tesla’s losses in Europe, telling Bloomberg News in an interview at the Qatar Economic Forum that although it was the region where the brand faces its greatest challenges, “the European car market is quite weak.” But data from European markets does not support that claim. In Germany, sales of battery-powered cars grew nearly 45 percent in May, compared with a year earlier. In Spain, overall sales of electric cars grew 72 percent, while Tesla sales slid 19 percent. In Germany, demand for BYD, Tesla’s main E.V. rival, rose ninefold, the strongest showing of an electric vehicle producer from China.

Paramount Member	Fri Jun 06 04:40:28 The level of anti-Americanism in Europe is quickly reaching the level of anti-semitism. The USA should block the sales of important American parts and components that European manufacturers are using to build their cars if the Europeans don’t start to buy more American cars. Europe also needs to condemn Hamas.
