Teslas turn toxic as sales crash in Europe and the UK | EV sales in the region are growing, but not for Tesla
-
I'm a sole trader, Stone Mason, I make enough to buy a used vehicle, but not new. Know what I would love? A light duty truck, no crew cab road princess bullshit, two seats in front, maybe a single half door passenger side for putting stuff behind the seats, and a properly sized bed. There's no such thing on the used market. There's absolutely uses for small trucks for trades folk. Back in Canada I had an older Ford Ranger, from when they were a rebadged Mitsubishi B3200. I would step over my dying gran for something like that here in the UK. The new Rangers are a fucking joke, FWD, crew cab standard, and they're the size of the old F-150s, completely unusable in the UK. I'm thinking about maybe importing a Japanese Kei Truck. There's some larger ones that are smaller than an old Ranger, but big enough for what I need....and they look cool AF.

This post unfortunately leaves out the all important Council of Europe (not to be confused with the European Council).

What stereotype?

It does though, their most profitable (as in profit margin) businesses areas are the subscription based services and charging.

The EU one has camo painted seas, so I needed several seconds for my understanding of "what is where" kicked in. I wonder how they got this stupid idea

Sell it to who, Ben? Fucking Aquaman?
Good choice, no point throwing it away if it was too late for you to realize, but it's more powerful as a platform to disavow Musk and Tesla.
The US is collapsing and all I got was this lousy car

I remember headlines of people burning their Nikes when they learned the company was woke or something. Burn your car mate, that'll show them for sure!

Sure, I'd judge someone if they bought a new one recently as well, but I think you're being a bit unreasonable. Not everyone can afford to switch cars.
-
Fair point. I won’t judge Tesla drivers. I’ll judge Tesla drivers that don’t have a load of stickers on their car.

Well, I mean a car where I can fit with my wife, two kids, bag of groceries and still drive uphill...

Tesla ownership is its own punishment.

I'd be interested to see some market analysis that looks into the reasons for the sales declines. In particular, how much is driven by poor product quality versus how much is due to Musk being a knobhead.

I'm still friends with my ex, who's American (as I am), but it's far from a distant memory for her. 90% of her extended family on her mother's side died in Auschwitz. Nearly as many on her father's side were murdered too,

A family member's a brickie. He ran an LDV Pilot for few years, until it died, and it was useful (piece of shit, but pretty reliable, and cheap to fix when it did break) while it lasted. But newer trucks and small vans aren't nearly as suitable.

The British Isles include the Isle of Man (and also Ireland, the Isle of Wight, the Hebrides, the Shetlands, the Isles of Scilly and (debatably) the Channel Islands. Great Britain is the name of the big island that England, Wales and mainland Scotland sits on.
