People dont know it, but tesla model Y was best selling car in 2023. This company is so far ahead, despite the hate

Yes, worldwide, and almost half of all Teslas are sold in China. The idea that they can continue to stay atop of the Chinese market is not a bet I would be willing to take.

That has nothing to do with this article and CyberTruck? Also, Tesla sales went down in 2024 in the US. https://www.notateslaapp.com/news/2491/tesla-suffers-sharp-decline-in-us-sales-a-look-at-the-numbers https://www.notateslaapp.com/news/2491/tesla-suffers-sharp-d...

How can we not know it? It's every second sentence out of every Tesla fanboy's keyboard. Thankfully, people wised up to the scam and it's no longer the case.

There was a lot less hate in 2023. Only fairly online liberals were really paying much attention to Elon's politics. Interested to see 2025 numbers.

Is that why their sales are plunging across the world? Why their stock has been dropping since mid December? In some countries sales started falling mid 2024 and have fallen ~50-60% in one quarter. Germany says new Tesla registrations have plunged. They're plunging in China, too - the biggest EV market in the world - which really fucks Tesla over. BYD is eating them alive.

They have the best selling model but they only have a few models. Other companies don't have any single model that outsells the Tesla model Y, but they have more models and that adds up. For example in 2023 Tesla sold 1220k model Y, and 508k model 3. Toyota's best seller was the RAV4 at 1070k and their number 2 seller was the Corolla at 803k, so even just looking at the top 2 for the two companies Toyota sold a little more. But Toyota has 3 more models that also sold less than Tesla model Y but more than model 3: The Corolla Cross at 715k, Camry at 650k, and HiLux as 605k. Worldwide, Tesla has 2.77% of the market, which is tied with Audi. Here's the market share of the companies that sell more: 11.07% Toyota, 6.41% VW, 4.87% Honda, 4.82% Ford, 4.56% Hyundai, 3.84% Nissan, 3.77% Suzuki, 3.53% Kia, 3.48% Chevrolet, 3.47% BYD, and 2.67% Mercedes-Benz.
