Eleven months into 2024, Tesla recorded a double-digit decrease in registrations, according to the European Automobile Manufacturers’ Association (ACEA), which released official figures for November.
To be clear, Tesla is still the largest EV manufacturer in Europe and the United States, but its grip is weakening on the other side of the Atlantic. Last month, Tesla recorded a 40.9% decrease in registrations in the European Union compared to the same month last year. The number of registrations went from 31,810 in November 2023 to 18,786 last month, marking a decrease in market share from 3.6% to 2.2%
The automaker’s losses can be attributed to a number of factors, including the increasingly controversial attitude of its CEO, Elon Musk, and the decrease in government incentives. Some European states have reduced the amount of money offered toward the purchase of a new EV, while others have eliminated the incentives altogether.
So Elon Musk keep actively threatening the unions and social security in Europe and Europe doesn’t even has the courage to impose some balls heating taxes but instead letting him to takeover European market. Thank you Europe!
Elon Hitler is poison to his consumer base – Tesla is dead. SpaceX would never have existed if it didn’t stand on the shoulders of NASA and then proclaim a victory for the (subsidized) private sector.
It’s now a race between the diminished intellectual capacity of the American voter and Elon’s 3rd generation fascism to see whether humanity survives this particular wave of oligarchic bullshit and lives to battle the next.
Soon to follow in the US.
Could it be because of Elon? Seems like a great oligarch to me. Am I missing something?
Being the most unlikable motherfucker on the planet tends to make that happen
Yeah.. F that guy
Tanking in Europe is like fishing in Mediterranean. Unlikely to end well.
Nobody wants to be reminded what an asshole is making money with your purchase every time you get into your car.
I would be ashamed of being seen in a Trump-o-mobile. I loathe every Tesla driver.
The autopilot tends to lean to the far right this days.
good
Good. Fuck off out of Europe’s business Musk.
Tesla drivers have kinda taken over from BMW drivers in terms of prejudiced arrogance.
Anybody who buys a Tesla now I suspect of grand douchery and/or limited catalog options for a company car.
I hear more people choosing Hyundai, Volkswagen, Audi, BMW, Mercedes, Peugeot, Toyota, Volvo,… than Tesla. Though BYD has popped up out of left side and looks like they’re staying.
I just don’t understand the appeal of a car with every menu stuck in a touch panel. Other car brand’s models that copycatted this are equally worthless in my eyes. Toys, not tools.
Unreliable cars. Expensive. Headed by a sociopathic psycho who stands literally for the attributes of extreme greed grift power hunger right wing ideologies and nationalism (from a naturalized citizen mind you) who now wants to be puppet master to a president he purchased and a social media company to spread his deranged messages and enable his ilk to spread their messages.
Musk over promises, under delivers and seems like he’s done with cars
As it should be. Financing Musk is financing the far right in Europe
Deserved for Elon
I would get a Chinese EV even if it would cost more than a tesla.
For me it’s Elon. Otherwise I would have considered one.
We’re going to get a terrible surprise next year when suddenly, the numbers look fine again for Tesla. The new Model Y, the best selling car of 2023, will get a refresh then. It’s an SUV and that’s what trendy right now. I drive one too, but my next one won’t be an SUV and for sure not a Tesla.
Reality is: most people do not know or care about Musk’s political rants and oligarchic behavior. Or, they even like what Musk has to say. Europeans aren’t immune to this “anti-woke” culture war thing. Especially regarding refugees and immigration, more Europeans than Reddit wants to accept, align with Musk. A good 20-30% of Europeans hold similar views. Elections in the Netherlands and Austria have shown as much.
It doesn’t fit together: Musk, “THE EV man”, endorsing the AfD, who never had a single positive thing to say about EVs. Who knows what this guy’s endgame is. He should stay the fuck out of influencing my country though. We should ban X and TikTok.
Their cars seem to be evolving backwards in some aspects too. They replaced the indicator stalks with buttons on the steering wheel in the new model 3 for example. They removed the rain sensors and the supersonic parking sensors… It’s incredibly frustrating to drive a “super modern high tech vehicle” that can’t detect rain properly. This problem was solved more than 20 years ago. And I can only comment on the non enhanced autopilot, but it can get extremely cumbersome.
I think Tesla is among if not the greatest e-cars in the world, I will never buy a TESLA because I don’t support Elon’s politics or how he treats his employees
str8 praying on this dorks downfall now ngl
Also: Given the recent turn if events, I would prefer a European brand rather than a Tesla or Chinese one.
As it turns out people who buy EVs don’t like funding climate change denial and fascism. Who could have possibly known?

This reminds me of the [interview where Elon Musk laughed ](https://youtube.com/shorts/pLke-11DTRw?si=QEtURXcWQvTysIB9)when asked whether BYD is a serious competitor.
