“Sales are down, yearly revenue is down for the first time ever, and quarterly profits fell by a whopping 61 percent… That gives it a price-to-earnings ratio of 297—a ludicrous figure… The most immediate cause of Tesla’s sales problems is Musk’s political activities. …Musk’s unmasking as a Nazi salute–throwing fascist has obliterated Tesla’s futuristic green-friendly brand. … But Tesla’s problems run much deeper than that.”—Ryan Cooperhttps://prospect.org/2026/01/30/teslas-wile-e-coyote-moment-is-here/#tesla #musk #elonmusk

@janhoglund Personally I purchase cars based upon my needs not based upon the politics of the founders, not that I disagree with Musks. I don't purchase a Tesla primary out of fear of it burning my house down or self immolating while I'm locked into it.

Ten years ago, I would have at least considered a Tesla; now I would not drive one if you paid me to.—Ryan Cooper#tesla #musk

“The…Cybertruck can now be concluded to be a total flop—one of the worst in the history of American automaking. While Musk boasted of a supposed two million preorders, Tesla sold just 39,000…in 2024, and…20,000 in 2025.”—Ryan Cooper#cybertruck #tesla #musk

“Where once Tesla had the EV field in America mostly to itself, there is now increasingly stiff competition. … BYD is now the undisputed king of EVs, outselling everyone by a large and growing margin. Its technology is better, and its prices are much lower.”—Ryan Cooper#tesla #byd
