A survey of over 100,000 Germans revealed that 94% won’t buy a Tesla vehicle. It doesn’t bode well for the automaker, whose sales had already been falling off a cliff in the important European market.
In 2024, Tesla saw a 41% reduction in sales in Germany compared to 2023 despite EV sales surging 27% during the year.
This has already raised red flags about Tesla’s future in Germany, but it is nothing compared to Tesla’s performance so far in 2025.
Tesla’s sales were down 70% in the first two months of 2025, and again, that’s compared to its already poor performance in 2024.
Musk could have 0 shares in Tesla. The whole marketing of his companies revolved around him. Its even worse than Apple and Steve Jobs. People will think Tesla = Musk until Musk is dead.
Unless they do a huge PR stunt, maybe even a rebranding.
Their CEO may be considering TeSSla as a new brand.
If they actually call Elon out for being a nazi and shout from the rooftops about him owning 0 shares then I’ll consider not laughing at swastikars in public
This. It’s the only way I’d even -think- about the company with any degree of respect. Until the billionaire is stripped of his toys they’re part of the problem.
