Summary
Tesla’s sales in Europe collapsed in April, plunging over 50% in several countries despite an overall 23.9% rise in EU EV sales.
Sweden saw an 81% drop, the Netherlands 73.8%, and France 59%.
The refreshed Model Y failed to revive interest as buyers turned to alternatives, citing CEO Elon Musk’s controversies or superior competitors.
Tesla’s Q1 EU market share fell from 2.4% to 1.3%. Including the UK and EFTA, sales dropped 37.3%. Globally, 2024 was Tesla’s worst delivery year in two years, raising doubts about a near-term recovery.
Let’s put it like this: Antifascists won’t forget.
Here in the EU we have more than one country that was in fact rebuilt from the ground up centered around an Antifascist identity.
My country, Italy is one of them, and yes, we have at the government a woman who represents a party which is direct descendant of the fascist party, but that’s why you get students and professors in the universities and common people rallying together for Palestine AND against the neo-fascist government’s decrees.
There is an end in sight for Musk, one I can promise: this all ends when every fascist is dead.
