🔗 Tesla Car Sales Dropped 9% in 2025, Falling Behind China’s BYD - The New York Times

"Tesla’s decreasing sales suggest that a wider slump is in store for electric vehicles"

No it doesn’t.

All markets outside the U.S.A. grew … significantly depending on region … 20 to 30 percent

The U.S.A. market shrank by 1% and Tesla was 45% of that

BYD outside U.S.A. grew 28%, Tesla declined by 9%

BYD OUTSOLD Tesla in every market except U.S.A.

BYD INSIDE THE U.S.A. close to zero .. that’s what 100% tariffs will do to a business
