Tesla reports 14 percent drop in second-quarter vehicle deliveries

Tesla sales have reached a new hollow, the company reporting a 14% drop in vehicle deliveries in the second quarter compared to a year ago.

The company said that it had produced a total of 410,244 vehicles between April and June this year, including 396,835 models of model 3 and the Y model, as well as 13,409 “other vehicles” such as model S, model X and Cybertruck. This represents a minor drop of 0.1% compared to the second quarter of 2024, when the company produced 410,831 vehicles.

Tesla also said that he had delivered a total of 384,122 vehicles, including 373,728 3 and Model Y model vehicles, as well as 10,394 other vehicles – a drop of 14% compared to the second quarter of 2024, when he delivered 443,956 vehicles. (For a direct company to consumers like Tesla, deliveries are an indirect sales indicator.)

The expectations have been dark enough for this quarter, UBS predicting an 18% drop in deliveries from one year to the next, and Barclay estimating 375,000 vehicles sold. Tesla may have overlapted these expectations, but the company is still in constant decline since its first drop in sales from a first year since 2020 last year.

It was another disturbing sign for the company of electric vehicles formerly high -flying while it continues to fight against increasing competition, the stagnant demand for electric vehicles and an increasing reaction against the political activities of Elon Musk within the administration of President Donald Trump. Tesla Takedown’s protest movement, which started earlier this year, has targeted hundreds of Tesla dealers around the world in order to further erode the sales of the company.

Last month, Musk announced that he was moving away from his post at the Ministry of Government (DOGE) in the middle of a bitter quarrel with Trump – but insisted that controversial Doge cost reduction efforts would continue. However, his reputation in the United States has dropped, the majority of people saying that they have a negative vision of him. His statements have saved the government a Billion of dollars by reducing “waste, fraud and abuses” seem to have been mainly overestimated.

There were other disturbing panels before the T2 report. Tesla sales in Europe were in serious crisis with five consecutive months of decline, according to the registration data from the European Union. In China, business sales continue to decrease while national brands like Byd enter more market share. (Tesla does not break sales at the regional level, so that the recording data of Europe and China are closely monitored.)

During the first quarter, Tesla awarded part of the drop in design to design and production changes for the newly refreshed model Y. But now, the REMAnié EV is widely available, and the automaker figures are still in the wrong direction.

There have also been interior disorders in Tesla. Last week, Omead AFSHAR, vice -president of the manufacture of Tesla and a long -standing ally, left the company – with some reports suggesting that it was dismissed. His departure follows that of Milan Kovac, head of the Humanoid Optimus robot project, earlier this month.

The launch of the Robotaxi service for a long time of Tesla was also a bit of a bust. Instead of “not supervised” vehicles that Musk had promised at the beginning of this year, Robotaxis presented Tesla-Employed safety instructors on the front passenger headquarters. Several videos of the service in action have shown significant security tricks, including a rootaxi leading to the double yellow line in the opposite traffic route and braking hard in the middle of the road without reason.
