Early car sales data for January is starting to arrive from countries across the pond, and they paint an alarming picture for Tesla. Sales are crashing in France, Germany, and the UK—all affluent countries that are key markets for Tesla’s electric vehicles. Coming on the heels of a large financial miss, it’s just one more problem for the automaker.

    I know someone who bought one after the first FSD debacles because at the time it was the only available electric car rated to pull his trailer when fully loaded; most electrics wouldn’t do more than 750 kg. He doesn’t give a shit about FSD but he does have a big trailer.

    Probably a bit of a bad look these days, though, given that he’s politically active for the local Green Party.
