Summary

Tesla’s registrations in France dropped 63% in January, their lowest since August 2022, far outpacing the broader total EV sales’ 0.5% decline.

Tesla registrations across EU countries fell 13% last year, with Germany accounting for much of the decline.

Sales in Germany, Tesla’s biggest European market, also fell 41% last year due to an aging lineup, competition, and subsidy cuts.

CEO Elon Musk’s political involvement, including support for Germany’s far-right party, may be affecting demand.

    Not many people want to be seen in a nazi car. Between that and twitter, the babyllionaire douche is really demonstrating his genius.

      Eh, people really like VW bugs, and those we’re commissioned by hitler and designed by the nazis. They’ve done a lot better at distancing themselves from their founder, though.
