Tesla sales crash 45% in Europe as rivals surge, Musk’s politics spark backlash
-
Tesla is currently four times as big as Toyota by market capitalization.
...But that number is total BS, just gambler's hype, it doesn't actually represent how "big" a company is. Like, I'm more "pro investment" than most of Lemmy and subscribe to the Buffet ideology that stocks aren't a total gamble, but Tesla's stock price has been untethered from reality for years.
Tesla is a very good startup/player, but the idea that they would somehow take over the entire auto market (as the price suggests) makes zero sense.

Who are the remaining 55% still buying swasticars?
-
Most likely the profitability will come from DOGE funneling.

Unfortunately I believe that he does not give a shit.

That is fucking wild!
American Speedrun to the ground.

China updates car models every 1.5 years? That's kinda cool.

Unwiped asshole
-
yay I needed this today
-
Europe better be careful, they're about to be sued if they keep up this kind of behavior

People who don't know or care, I hope it ends up being like 5-10% of their normal sale forcing them to only have a single store in each country.
And with the way they fall to pieces, it will be a curiosity in 10-15 years.

Yeah right, only? I mean it's not a good decision politically, but also no longer economically sound, you might want to sell it down the road, to whom, and for what price?
-
Those are preliminary numbers. They'll do everything they can to hide the real numbers too. I wouldn't be surprised if the real sales numbers are already down 80 percent.

Not uh bro, just give them another 5 years and their build quality will improve.......
It's almost like manufacturing vehicles takes skilled labor or something. I'll be happy when their valuation finally reflects something approaching realistic numbers. Just comparing simple metrics like employee retention should have been enough to tip off investors that Tesla was massively overvalued.
I mean there's a reason the other major manufacturers haven't killed off unions completely. You can't just keep replacing your entire workforce every couple years and expect any kind of quality control.

I should go check my Volkswagen stocks.

Yeap, a lot of people confuse market capitalization with market share. The two should be somewhat intrinsically tethered in some way, but a lot of investing nowadays is purely speculation based on marketing (aka lying).

Yes, and this is a very important factor if you want to get or stay ahead.
Intel had their famous Tik-Tok strategy up until 2016, and when that broke, Intel broke.
Nvidia had a similar strategy churning originally out new GPU models at twice the speed of competitors. And Nvidia is now the most successful chip making company ever.This article is a bit more modest than twice the speed, stating only 30% faster development cycle in China, but there is no doubt the Chinese market is extremely competitive:

Sell it? Isn't there an contract you have to sign (at least for the cuck truck) that prohibits you from selling it for some number of years?
-
Musk didnt learn a single thing from mismanaging twitter right into the ground. Tesla is up next. The US government after that.
-
Well iif you're picky stay away from DuPont then. They provided Nazis with information and material during the second world way, all the way up until the Nazis took their assets in Germany.

The cuck truck is not road legal anywhere in Europe AFAIK
