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.
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! 🇩🇰

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.

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?
In that case it would depend how you said it. Fred emigrated from UK to France. Or Fred imigrated to Italy from Spain. In normal everyday speak, ‘emigrated to’ would be the more normal way to say it.
But I can’t be worried about my emigrant grocer, because he would no longer be there. The imigrant grocer on the other hand…
