Tesla sales are the lowest new level, with the company Reporting a decrease of 14 percent In vehicle connections in the second quarter compared to a year ago.

The company said that it produced a total of 410,244 vehicles between April – June this year, including 396,835 3 -style vehicles and Y, as well as 13,409 “other vehicles” such as the S and Model X and Cyblertruck model.

(For a direct consumer company like Tesla, delivery operations are a sales agent.)

The expectations were very dark for this quarter, as UBS expected a 18 % decrease in delivery processes on an annual basis, and Barclay estimated 375,000 cars. Tesla may outweigh these expectations, but the company is still steadily decreased since its reporting Decreased sales of the first year since 2020 last year.

Another worrying sign was For once EV, it continues to conflict through the increasing competition, stagnant demand for electric cars, and a growing violent reaction against ELON Musk’s political activities within the administration of President Donald Trump. Tesla protest movementWhich started earlier this year, targeting hundreds of Tesla agents all over the world in an attempt to erode the company’s sales further.

Last month, Musk announced that he was moving away from his position in the Ministry of Governmental efficiency (Doge) Bitter runner with Trump -But I insisted that Dog’s controversial efforts will continue. However, his reputation decreased in the United States, with a Most people say they have a negative vision for him. His allegations that it saved the government by a trillion dollars by reducing “waste, fraud and abuse” It seems that it was mostly exaggerated.

There were other disturbing signs before the Q2 report. Tesla sales in Europe She was in a state of dangerous stagnation with five consecutive months of decline, according to registration data from the European Union. In China, the company’s sales continue to decrease with a decrease in local brands such as BYD more of its share in the market. (Tesla does not divide sales at the regional level, so registration data from Europe and China are closely monitored.)

During the Q1, Tesla attributed some decrease in sales to the design and production of changes to the newly updated model Y. But now is widely available, and the auto industry numbers are still moving in the wrong direction.

There was The internal disorders in Tesla as well. Last week, Omead Affshar, Vice President of Manufacturing in Tesla, and the long -time ally, left the company – with some reports indicating that it was separated. His departure is followed by Milan Kovac, head of the Optimus Humanoid Robot project, earlier this month.

The launch of the Robotaxi service that has been postponed for a long time It was also a bit of a bust. Instead of the “non -supervision” vehicles promised by Musk at the beginning of this year, robotics was characterized by the safety monitoring of Tesla in the front passenger seat. Several videos of service at work showed Large lapses safetyIncluding robotics leads over the double yellow line in the opposite corridor of traffic and braking strongly in the middle of the road without reason.
