Welcome to the News community!
Rules:
1. Be civil
Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only. This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban. Do not respond to rule-breaking content; report it and move on.
2. All posts should contain a source (url) that is as reliable and unbiased as possible and must only contain one link.
Obvious biased sources will be removed at the mods’ discretion. Supporting links can be added in comments or posted separately but not to the post body. Sources may be checked for reliability using Wikipedia, MBFC, AdFontes, GroundNews, etc.
3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.
Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.
4. Post titles should be the same as the article used as source. Clickbait titles may be removed.
Posts which titles don’t match the source may be removed. If the site changed their headline, we may ask you to update the post title. Clickbait titles use hyperbolic language and do not accurately describe the article content. When necessary, post titles may be edited, clearly marked with [brackets], but may never be used to editorialize or comment on the content.
5. Only recent news is allowed.
Posts must be news from the most recent 30 days.
6. All posts must be news articles.
No opinion pieces, Listicles, editorials, videos, blogs, press releases, or celebrity gossip will be allowed. All posts will be judged on a case-by-case basis. Mods may use discretion to pre-approve videos or press releases from highly credible sources that provide unique, newsworthy content not available or possible in another format.
7. No duplicate posts.
If an article has already been posted, it will be removed. Different articles reporting on the same subject are permitted. If the post that matches your post is very old, we refer you to rule 5.
8. Misinformation is prohibited.
Misinformation / propaganda is strictly prohibited. Any comment or post containing or linking to misinformation will be removed. If you feel that your post has been removed in error, credible sources must be provided.
9. No link shorteners or news aggregators.
All posts must link to original article sources. You may include archival links in the post description. News aggregators such as Yahoo, Google, Hacker News, etc. should be avoided in favor of the original source link.

Certainly not smart ones. I've heard nothing actually good about these cars, except that they helped popularise electric cars
It takes time for these things to play out. Its a lagging metric.
That's in one month.
I agree it is surprisingly low. I do wonder how many red hats bought one when Elon and Trump were still dating?
People that live in a car centric country where you cant go anywhere without one and can't afford a new car just yet. I have a relatively new car and relatively doing well financially, but if I had to buy a new car immediately I'd probably be fucked for the rest of the year. And the fact that the resale market for Tesla is probably not that great right now you won't get much money back by selling it. I am seeing a lot of Teslas with the logo taken off, though.
That is very low.
YoY declines need to hit 60-70% or more. Even they 50% decline in European countries should be higher.
Even by the low standards of American oligarchy, Musk is a terrible individual.
Insane that it's still 40k registrations.
Get wrecked Elon.
16% less coke for Elon.
Tesla hasn't even made half of Musk's payout in its lifetime... Its basically gamestop stock. Company's performance is irrelevant.
Oh I know, the irony. Most of his money is coming from defense contracts, which is even more funnier he is poking that bear.
Which is why he belly-crawled, then disappeared.

If the data there is accurate, overall registrations dropped by 14.4% meaning Tesla did better than the industry average.
Total EV registrations fell 4.4%. Tesla fell 16%.
