January Tesla sales are down 75% in Spain, 63% in France, 59% in Germany, 44% in Sweden, 38% in Norway, 42% in the Netherlands, and 33% in Australia. I guess being a nazi is bad for business. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

@MeanwhileinCanada

Meanwhile e-car sales skyrocket in total in germany.

@MeanwhileinCanada
I wonder how they're doing here on Brexit Island? Certainly seem to be plenty on the roads.
@GottaLaff
@pthane @MeanwhileinCanada There are a ton here in the Vancouver area.

@pthane @MeanwhileinCanada @GottaLaff

Sales falls in January isn't unusual useful because Tesla push so hard to sell stock at the end of each calendar year.
We will have to wait a month or two.

What is important if that if Tesla sales are seen to collapse then, along with the (lack of) cybertruck sales, the stock price of Tesla may fall with it. And that will hurt Musk.

A big question there is what will happen to sales in the US, Canada and China...

I think Tesla's stock price is more a measure of what investors think of Musk than what they think about the company. Musk's personal wealth is set to skyrocket as he loots the Treasury, so $TSLA is going up even as Trump promises to do everything he can to bring back ICE cars over EVs.
@stevel @pthane @MeanwhileinCanada @GottaLaff The comparison is to the same period from the previous year, so this isn't about the season.

@kcivey @pthane @MeanwhileinCanada @GottaLaff I understand. Be aware that Tesla is launching a new refreshed model Y, people buying a model Y may have been holding off until it shipped.

Of course now they will have a vehicle whose updated styling tells everyone they bought it after Trump+Musk came to power, and it will have a 2025 number plate to make this even clearer.

After the backlog of pending deliveries of that model has been cleared, then we might see some declines

@MeanwhileinCanada It's not about the Nazis in general, it's about not wanting to be associated with one. And sane people don't want that. I currently wouldn't even want one for free and not buying a Tesla, not using Starlink and not using X is the only way to get to the Nazi child. Take away his toys (money).
@MeanwhileinCanada MAGA be like : this is anti-amerikkkan racism 😭

@MeanwhileinCanada

We need an equivalent of that whole "Go woke, go broke" thing, but for fascism/nazi

My rhyming game is a bit weak right now though, and silly pithy sayings were never my forte.

@MeanwhileinCanada @ishambard

How about “Be a Nazi, die a penniless, friendless, death.”

It doesn’t exactly adhere to the rules but then neither do the Nazis so fuck ‘em.

Tesla’s sales drop double digits in the US’ biggest EV market, while others are growing

Tesla’s sales have dropped by double digits in California, the most important EV market in the US, all while the...

@MeanwhileinCanada I guess that’s why Murks only went full-on public Nazi after he knew that he‘d be able to plunder the US government.
@MeanwhileinCanada here in Australia we see plenty but there is a big push from the other brands whose cars are much better
@MeanwhileinCanada help me make a rhyme for this ‘go Nazi go broke’ .

@WatchLover679 @MeanwhileinCanada

What about "Be woke or go broke"?

@mndflayr @MeanwhileinCanada too close to theirs "go woke go broke" at least that is what Desantis says.

Really looking for something with Nazi or Nazis in the phrase 🙂

@MeanwhileinCanada

EV market is very crowded now, Tesla just doesn't stand out in the lineup.

@MeanwhileinCanada Go fash, lose cash

@rrojas @MeanwhileinCanada went anti-woke, got stroke

... looks pretty unhealthy in the long run looking at the trumpeter and his muse

@MeanwhileinCanada That is what I have been saying since Oct 2024.
@MeanwhileinCanada Sadly, not always, on the contrary.
@MeanwhileinCanada When you have the reins of a country in your hands and you have already amassed enough wealth, perhaps you have already fulfilled the purpose of your life; and whether X goes wrong, or Tesla goes wrong, you don't really care. Just thinking aloud.

@MeanwhileinCanada

Fuck around… Find out…

@MeanwhileinCanada Seriously? That's all you gotta say? Lol they lost business?

Capitalism does really good as has been shown in the past and showing now... nobody gives a fuck about lost sales for the etron... did he care when twix lost half its value? It fucking brought a nazi in power!!!!

We'll have to do much much MUCH better than this to fight it. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

@MeanwhileinCanada

it's too bad he's got his grubby nazi mitts on our federal treasury, won't be surprised if the little shit lines his pockets with our taxes to offset losses

@MeanwhileinCanada I hope that's the case but weren't their sales often 'lumpy', in some markets at least, due to shipment variations
@MeanwhileinCanada lololol get wrecked Tesla and gang!

@MeanwhileinCanada

Good to see. I hope Rivian blows by them.

@MeanwhileinCanada please tell me sales in the US are down too!
@MeanwhileinCanada oh no, the banana republic won't let that go unsanctioned
@MeanwhileinCanada I can see the tariffs coming off the Chinese EV’s soon…
@MeanwhileinCanada It's not only vehicles. There's the Tesla Powerwall. Battery and inverter units for industrial and domestic use. Widely used in solar installations.
@MeanwhileinCanada 💯
I love it when consequences come a knocking
#FAFO
@MeanwhileinCanada Next on the list should be StarLink internet service, X, and SpaceX.
@MeanwhileinCanada That sounds like a good start.
@MeanwhileinCanada i saw a Tesla on the road yesterday with a large sticker on the back: "Elon Sucks"
I performed a tripple honk to salut the driver for so much self-awareness.
@MeanwhileinCanada Musk couldn't care less. He sits on 6 trillion tax payers money right now.
@MeanwhileinCanada
I suppose some part of the others just don't know. Those numbers can be further improved.
@MeanwhileinCanada don't know how it's for other countries, but in Norway, Tesla sales has a 3 month cycle, with a surge in registrations every 3rd month. December was the last time, so it's a bit early to conclude that sales are actually down, wait until March has passed. *fingers crossed*
@MeanwhileinCanada He already found a better source to get richer. 😔
