Musk's next challenge? Reviving Tesla as Europe sales plunge 50% in a year

Tesla sales plunged by more than half last month in several European countries in a sign that Elon Musk could struggle to revive the company after he shifts from his Washington work to running the automaker again. Tesla sales collapsed in April by more than two-thirds from a year earlier in Sweden, the Netherlands and Denmark, according to auto groups and government agencies Friday. Sales at the Austin, Texas, company dropped by 59% in France and 38% in Norway. The countries are not major drivers of sales overall, but they are the first to report April results and thus a foretaste of possible trouble elsewhere as Tesla reels from protests and boycotts over Musk wading into politics. In Germany, where he told voters their country was lost if they didn't vote for a candidate widely derided for her extreme views, sales plunged 62% in the first three months this year. German sales for April are not out yet. Financial analysts covering Tesla are worried about the Musk backlash but cauti

Trump calls to buy Tesla as sales drop amid protests, political backlash

After one of the worst single day sell-offs in Tesla's history, President Donald Trump threw his support behind his advisor, billionaire Elon Musk, vowing to buy one of his cars on Tuesday. Tesla has been pummelled this year under competition from rival electric vehicles, particularly out of China, as well as his close association with Trump and with far right causes globally. Shares have plummeted 45 per cent in 2025 and on Monday tumbled more than 15 per cent to USD 222.15, the lowest since late October, reflecting newfound pessimism as sales crater around the globe. In an overnight post on his Truth Social platform, Trump said Musk is putting it on the line to help the country. Trump claimed in the post that Radical Left Lunatics were attempting to illegally and collusively boycott Tesla, one of the World's great automakers, and Elon's baby". The stock climbed more than 3 per cent before the market open on Tuesday. Numerous auto industry analysts have attributed Tesla's recent
