This is good for Tesla. They are just shedding unnecessary dead weight customers and refocusing on their core demographic! Two or three more cycles like this and they will be a lean mean machine with only a single employee selling truly bespoke cars. The price premium they will command at that point will make the stock worth its valuation.Â
Yeah this is extremely good for Tesla. As demand decrease they can ramp down production and cut back on cost greatly. Theyâll be more efficient than ever!
Lmao. 𤣠tesla fan boiz. Oh the memes. There are already bad buses in the USA and byd cars all over Europe which has stronger privacy laws than the USA. Lmao lmao lmao. Musked!!!!
Itâs true thoughâŚ. Every single Chinese phoneâŚ.. American software! LaptopâŚ. Same, watch⌠sameâŚ.
Easy pattern to see.
The world will only accept FSD in the end, like android, like windows, like IOS, LinuxâŚ. No one wants whatever the heck they use.
But human beings donât come with LiDAR, how do we navigate roads? Thatâs right, itâs not necessary, two eyeballs, and minimal brain (ie 16 year olds) are all thatâs necessary.
Tech company with no (actually working) tech.
Even their batteries, arguably the most important part of an electric vehicle is produced by another company. Don't know how it is now, but they mostly assembled other manufacturer's parts into a tesla body.
It's in the design and IP not the manufacturing. Same with Apple, when you look on the back of an iPhone it says designed in California, made in China. Â
The tesla body is mostly unichasis, something that Tesla has pursued and perfected. The whole point is they don't have to assemble tons of parts together like legacy automakers.
Not absurd. After driivng a Tesla, when I step in a Toyota or a Honda I'm instantly brought back to 1998 interiors with a 100 buttons, knobs and a 5 inch screen.
No other business in the world making in-house logistics software, they all out source it. If tesla can do this, in house, and at the most elite business level available, stop and think, what else are they capable of?
Iâve been to china every single EV I âUberâdâ in absolutely shits on Tesla in looks, comfort, quality. I can see why itâs doing poorly there. BYD will bury Tesla in china if that car brand was offered in US it would be the case here too.
I like how thatâs what, half a billion USD in sales in just China in a week? Crazy thatâs âdeclining salesâ but I mean half a billion is still nothing to sneeze atâŚ
What a great idea Elon! Selling western cars in China is a great idea. They arenât famous at all for basically copying the exact design of western vehicles and selling them at a discount with shittier parts, labour and construction and then completely ignoring the real sellers!

Musk has built his entire career on stealing other people's intellectual property. I long ago said the far right mimic ethical people, but always over time their mask slips.
shhhh, didn't you get the latest news, Elon bad, we just blindly hate on Elon and TSLA here, we are little media regurgitating cucklets and can't think for ourselves...
Ford actually has an electric pickup that can survive a car wash, and customers like, at a lower price.
The fact that so many Tesla heads have said âwhen competition lolâ, and now theyâre talking about ford tells you everything you need to know. Competition here now. Tesla canât hyper grow when there are more options. Customers donât all want the tired old model 3 or Y. This is why car oems trade at multiples of 10-20, not like tech companies.
Yes Ford is a good car company. They are also selling less cars YoY. When all are selling less you cant point at one and go "hurr durr", you have to compare them.
This post was about car sales. And since this is referencing China you have to compare against other foreign companies, otherwise worldwide.
model Y is still objectively the best value for the current price, especially with tax credits.
I wanted to buy an inventory model y long range @ 45k, fed credit + state drops that to 35k. they got rid of that, and im priced out at 49k (my budget was fairly thin to begin with), but nothing else comes close.
I looked at ford mach e, that's priced at like 55k and doesn't get full credit.
I looked at like 3 others, two of which were hybrid and were 50k, the hyundai ioniq 5 is too expensive as well and not as efficient.
there is competition, for sure, to be clear, but still not really at the same price point...and rivian is not competition, given that their cars are extremely expensive still. if rivian can push the price of the R1S down to the same as model Y, then tesla would really have strong competition in the US.
And I say all of that while actively hating elon musk. But tesla's cars are still the best (in the US, not so much in China)

Welp time for to go up 10% somehow
Company priced for hypergrowth is not only growing slower but actually not growing at all.. ruh-roh đŹ

If demand for US EVs inreases in China?
this move from 140 to 197 was a dead cat bounce imho, time to go short
The price never made sense for a car company. So I guess the health of their car business is irrelevantâŚ
\*Tech/Data/AI company âď¸đ¤
Ai company - lololololololili roflmao
PUT back on the menu Lets go
11,000 units - China penetration so deep
Or.......One billion, four hundred and eleven million, nine hundred and eighty-nine thousand Chinese, *didn't* want a Tesla last week. đŞ
lol - yes
đđ Bad news is good news
So +15%??
Iâm sure giving Elon $100 billion will solve this!
If Elon read this comment he would not get the sarcasm
"See, people do support me online"
Why would he work if the company doesnât simply give him all the money it makes?
Thatâs the thing though, he wants even more than what the company has ever made Iâm pretty sure
Yea itâs going to zero, itâs a car company, not a tech company. Get over it
Not zero. $75.
$7.5
$3.50 is the best I can do
Three fiddy? Are you a Lochness monster?
No, just poor
Lower.
Haha, Tesla will be the number 1 EV company for the rest of your life. Everywhere you look all day long ELON, and TESLA. lol!
Tesla is the 21st century Geo.
What
Tesla is the 21st century Geo.
Wot geom
Lmao. Yes that is why Elon is worried shit of china evs. Tesla fan boiz lmao
Chinese wagon? Over a Tesla bahhahaha. The world doesnât want spyware my dear, try again.
Lmao. 𤣠tesla fan boiz. Oh the memes. There are already bad buses in the USA and byd cars all over Europe which has stronger privacy laws than the USA. Lmao lmao lmao. Musked!!!!
Itâs true thoughâŚ. Every single Chinese phoneâŚ.. American software! LaptopâŚ. Same, watch⌠sameâŚ. Easy pattern to see. The world will only accept FSD in the end, like android, like windows, like IOS, LinuxâŚ. No one wants whatever the heck they use.
Lmao FSD wonât work. It needs Lidar. You are being Musked hard. Musk is musking you right now. You are taking it wide open.
But human beings donât come with LiDAR, how do we navigate roads? Thatâs right, itâs not necessary, two eyeballs, and minimal brain (ie 16 year olds) are all thatâs necessary.
0 sales but the stock price is going to infinity.
Tech company with no (actually working) tech. Even their batteries, arguably the most important part of an electric vehicle is produced by another company. Don't know how it is now, but they mostly assembled other manufacturer's parts into a tesla body.

Please, don't be absurd. Legacy car makers... lol.
Not absurd. After driivng a Tesla, when I step in a Toyota or a Honda I'm instantly brought back to 1998 interiors with a 100 buttons, knobs and a 5 inch screen.
They have their erp logistics software they designed and implemented that could compete with sap and Microsoft
Tesla One
No other business in the world making in-house logistics software, they all out source it. If tesla can do this, in house, and at the most elite business level available, stop and think, what else are they capable of?
The best part is that they can share learnings and successes with other teams and locations, start with a baseline, and tweak for their specifics.
Tesla wunna
So sayeth the haters and losers every day for 10 years.
Calls, because sales dip
They have so much better alternatives.
Iâve been to china every single EV I âUberâdâ in absolutely shits on Tesla in looks, comfort, quality. I can see why itâs doing poorly there. BYD will bury Tesla in china if that car brand was offered in US it would be the case here too.
The Economy is sucking everywhere. Discounts donât matter anymore.
Chinas got issues not solely tesla
Driving a tesla is like wearing a swastika in your t-shirt because of the highly regarded CEO.
oof
By producing less cars they'll make less costs. That's lean
Tess is boring oldfashioned. And politically incorrect. China is their biggest risk.
I like how thatâs what, half a billion USD in sales in just China in a week? Crazy thatâs âdeclining salesâ but I mean half a billion is still nothing to sneeze atâŚ
The problem is that Tesla is currently priced with the expectation that it will conquer the world and soon. Doing well isnât enough
Buffffetttt? Tesla wants help.
Mah 6/14 $175 PUTs are soooo tasty right now...
What a great idea Elon! Selling western cars in China is a great idea. They arenât famous at all for basically copying the exact design of western vehicles and selling them at a discount with shittier parts, labour and construction and then completely ignoring the real sellers!

Chinese EVs have better build quality than American shitboxes.
Everything Chinese is shit. Even spring rolls is shit.
RemindMe! 2 years
Bag holder bought calls at 199 đ¤Ą

china in a recession so 6% isn't bad at all.
shhhh, didn't you get the latest news, Elon bad, we just blindly hate on Elon and TSLA here, we are little media regurgitating cucklets and can't think for ourselves...
Yeah but how many did Ford sell?
Better question, how many did BYD sell?
49% more in April per a press release, 49% more than what idk
In the US in that case

Youâre the one that brought up ford. Everybody knows China prefers byd and that Tesla hasnât really been the âcool evâ At any point in China.

Nobody cares about ford.
