“Tesla's sales in Europe are plummeting as rivals gain ground. Elon Musk's controversies, ageing models and market shifts challenge the EV leader
Tesla, once the dominant force in the European EV market, is experiencing a sharp decline in sales. The downturn has created an opening for competitors, including legacy automakers and emerging Chinese EV brands, to strengthen their foothold in Europe.
Sharp decline in sales across key markets
Recent data highlights Tesla's struggles across major European markets. In January 2025, it saw a significant drop in vehicle registrations:
Germany: Sales plummeted by 59.5%, with only 1,277 vehicles sold compared to 3,150 in January 2024.
France: A staggering 63.4% decline in sales.
UK: A more moderate 12% drop.
Netherlands: A 42.5% reduction in registrations.”
