Gone from the coolest car to the most embarrassing, and these people are supposed to be smart.
As a publicly traded US company, can't the board of directors vote Elon out because of tanking sales? Seems like that's the only way for the company to survive at this point.
In a normal company they could, but the board are all loyal to him, not the company. Recently they insisted in giving him a 50 BILLION bonus, yes, with B. No chance they will intervene. And putting a puppet CEO like at Twitter won't have a strong effect either.
He'll still retain his shares. Which is the source of his wealth.
For my money I'm going to throw a goddamn party if this cursed stock hits double digits.
Does that still apply when the CEO is also Emperor of the United States?
Cause everyone at Tesla is a spineless grifter too.
If you buy a Tesla now, it says something about you as a person...
I bought a Tesla years ago before Elon completely removed the mask.
No way I’d buy one now, but I also don’t want to sell it early and lose a tonne of money.
The Tesla board should intervene and remove him, but they won’t because he’s stacked it with yes men like his brother.
The only creatures that should buy a Tesla are from the fucking AfD.
Lol definitely won't, they're super anti-EV after all. I mean, they even want to get rid of all wind power plants. xD
This is what makes Musk's B-line towards Nazi stardom so strange to me. Like, did he think Nazis were suddenly going to start buying electric cars? They literally put nuts on their trucks right next to their bumper stickers using homosexual slurs to describe electric vehicles, all while "rolling coal" in front of every Tesla they see on the road.
These are the people you want to market to?
And at the expense of your existing market?
He's a fraud that knows his time is up and the only way out is through manipulating politics. That's basically the playbook of every grifter these days.
And those from the fucking UK apparently.
Very similar though - just waiting for them to elect farage to gut UK public services.
Next, space x?
Each time I see a new article about drop in sales, the percentage is higher. I love it.
I keep thinking it’s same article being reposted before noticing the drop is 10-15% greater than the last time I saw it. I hope he’s kicked from Europe entirely.
Good.
Say what you will about faceless corps, but toyota won't send some jackass out a the public face to do sieg hail, and be the gleeful butcher of government programs.
You have to be nestel levels of horrific before it breaks out of the corporate bubble.
I seriously question the mental stability of Tesla shareholders. Why on Earth does that man still have a job?
I'm not even talking about this recent stuff, I'm talking about all the things he's been doing for the last few years. It would get any normal person fired.
He has family members and toadies on the board
I wish people would also boycott Zuckerberg‘s products and Peter thiel‘s PayPal.
I actively boycott Zuckerberg's offerings bar WhatsApp coz the bastard bought it out from under us. Fuck him, fuck Meta
Lemmy, this is the 7th day in a row you've shown "Tesla sales down in Europe" news in Top.
Feel free to post other good news. I’ll be happy to upvote.
You can filter it out if you want. Whenever I read it I get warm fuzzies. It helps me cope.
We have this, crap copied from twitter or crap copied from reddit. Take your pick. :)
To be serious for a minute, I do wish there was more discussions and not just circle jerking. Its funny how everyone left the big platforms but still discusses the exact same things.

And the US tax payer is going to have to foot the bill on it...Elon sucks goldfish dick
I don't think Elon gives a fuck. He's tricked everyone he needs to into giving him billions of dollars. He isn't going to give any of it back. He's laughed all the way to the bank.
Feel the same way. He basically has the US Treasury now, and can do whatever he wants with his DOGE, I doubt he cares about Tesla.
Elon truly is a genius businessman. Letting him run the government is clearly a great idea.
It's been said more than once, that Musk isn't an asset to a company but a liability. Tesla didn't succeed because of Musk but despite him.
Let’s get it to 90%. We can do it.
70% is just rookie numbers
My heart pumps purple piss for fElon.
Deliver is not the same as sales. They are also launching a new model this summer so people could just be waiting. I know it’s a great news story, Europe bands together against Musk to show dissatisfaction with American politics, but it may not be true. If someone could find Tesla reports that delivers are far lower than expected I will change my mind.
I wanted to find their predictions for production in Q1 2025 to see if they planned for less deliveries before all this Musk hit the news cycle. The closest I got as 2024 Q2 production numbers. https://ir.tesla.com/press-release/tesla-vehicle-production-deliveries-and-date-financial-results-webcast-second-quarter-2024
Well I don't want to celebrate in advance, Model Y facelift just released, let's hope this trend continues and doesn't show a reversal.
They are on track to be worth less than BYD, the two will likely cross over quite soon.
