Autos trade group Mobility Sweden said new vehicle registrations of Tesla models were down 80.7% in April amid a backlash against the political activity of CEO Elon Musk.
Tesla registrations were 203 in April, down from 1,052 a year before.
It was one of the worst-performing automakers for the month in the Nordic country, and sat in contrast to an overall 11% rise in new passenger vehicle registrations to 24,292.
Polestar Automotive, a Swedish electric automaker and one of Tesla’s competitors, saw its sales hit 535 in April, an 11.5% increase.
Yet the stock has jumped like 50% while every single indicator is red.
I can’t believe it will last. Bubble has to pop. International sales in the toilet, Cybertruck failing, domestic sales down, supply chains in shock from tariff chaos, and on top of it all, it’s PE ratio makes no sense compared to all other manufacturers.
The entire stock price is based on nothing but Elon Musk and the world is starting to look at him as an idiot.
Some people tend to double down when they notice that they have lost a high percentage
I hope this evil apartheid Nazi welfare queen gets a lube free dildo of karma everyday for the rest of his life
If by “dildo” you mean “cactus”, then I am 100% with you!
Everything’s a dildo if you’re not a coward.
Once …
Or a pinapple
Yes, good point
Read “evil dildo” at first. Even that fits.
E. The fits was not intended, but suits here as well.
The story of Elon will be a phenomenal one. Icarus af. He could have ended world hunger and much more, but decided to become a nazi cunt and ruin everything. Money can’t buy intelligence.
To become a billionaire you have to be a piece of shit human being. No billionaire is ever going to solve world anything, because again… They are trash human beings.
There are two reasonably good ones, as far as I know - Gabe Newell and Bill Gates.
The rest though… yeah.
The world would be a very different place if every billionaire was anything like those two.I’d recommend listening to the Behind the Bastards episode on Bill Gates if you think he’s a good person.
Gates became a billionare by being a trash human being, then probably decided he didn’t want that to be his legacy so he started being somewhat less of one. He’s doing significantly better than most, but still probably a net negative.
Quote this in history books
I have literally since they were released wanted a Tesla…right up until he decided to start this right wing bullshit.
I have for a few years now said if in 2015 he decided to become a recluse and just revel in his companies grandeur he might be the next Edison or maybe more accurately Ford. Possibly Hughes.
Now we are aware of how much of a petulant, unfunny child this dickhead is. He and his reputation is ruined.
But Ford was a nazi too.
while he was alive this was less known, pretty much his point. 🤡
I was going to buy a Tesla in 2021, the only reason I didn’t was I needed a car immediately and they had a several month waiting list. If it had been available, I would’ve taken it. Even test drove one. Now, I will never buy a Tesla. I would rather have a Rivian anyway.
I even bought LOL-GAS personalized plates, in anticipation of buying a Tesla, but that aint happening now. I still have the plates, though, so maybe one day they’ll adorn a Chinese EV…
Yet tesla stock goes up. LOL.
How the fuck is the stock rising?
Oh. Wall Street is a joke. I forgot.
Yet tesla stock goes up. LOL.
How the fuck is the stock rising?
It’s down quite a bit this year:
It’s down quite a bit this year:
Yes and that seems to be mostly from the inauguration, Nazi salute and DOGE, january through March.
But if you look from when the tariffs were announced in the start of April, and most of American stock is down in that period. Then Tesla has done pretty well in April compared to most, despite being a company that will be hit hard by the tariffs.
Gamblers. Shorting the stock is still a show of support. If you don’t like Musk, stop betting for or against the stock. Don’t be greedy.
80% isn’t enough.
im mean, are they even trying?!! :)
push harder people!
Fucking about with the workers union also adds to the lack of trust and desire for the brand.
Best fucking country, so proud.
As a Scandinavian I too am proud of my brother Sweden. 👍😀
But you have to take it back about being “best”, when you obviously are only 2nd best! 🇩🇰More like in the top 5 🇫🇮
Ok, thanks, we all needed a laugh :)
But seriously, don’t ever change a thing about yourself, you’re too valuable as Russia’s speedbump.
Fuck, didn’t think you guys were around…
Dunno. Anecdotal, but I’ve seen a lot of racism in Denmark.
I don’t think racism is worse here than most places. Most people here who are against emigrants, have no problem with their emigrant neighbor or emigrant green grocer, it’s this weird phenomenon where the ones they know are OK, it’s all the others that are the problem.
Mostly standard fear of the unknown, which is a universal human trait.
FYI: Emigrants leave the country. Imigrants come to the country.
They left their country to settle here.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/EmigrationEmigration is the act of leaving a resident country or place of residence[1] with the intent to settle elsewhere
I don’t see the problem.
Ok I was just trying to help you understand the correct use of those words, as you are a Dane and English not being your native tongue.
You are talking about them from your POV as a Dane. That makes them imigrants. If a Dane moved to the USA, he would, from your POV, be an emigrant.
In other words; a foreigner is always an imigrant, a fellow native leaving is always an emigrant.
OK, so what if I as a Dane are talking about people the leave their country that isn’t Denmark to settle in a country that also isn’t Denmark?
Take it to zero!
I hunger to see Tesla turn into a penny stock.
I take comfort in knowing that their sales were already bad before all of this
Even if the company cans him its not likely to ever recover from all this
i was looking at BYD EVs this week, they seem alright? even tho they are mega tariffed
My biggest issue with BYD would be maintenance in my location. I got dealers for American, Japanese, but nothing for anything Chinese. My normal independent shop I use doesn’t want to touch our hybrid either.
Still too many sales.
Tesla has and is doing exactly what Musk said the goal was for Tesla, long ago. To spur EV sales for other competitors, since Tesla could never meet a full market demand. Congrats Elon, you not only did that, you’ve backed away to give everyone a bigger share of the market. You genius.
Oh, what? You didn’t mean to do this? Are those tears? Be a big boy and suck it up.
Those are rookie numbers we can get it much worse
