00:00Hello and welcome back to the channel. Today's headline is a shocker for the EV world.
00:05Tesla's sales in Europe have taken a massive hit and we're talking almost half in April.
00:10Yup, while overall electric car sales in Europe zoomed ahead by 37%,
00:15Tesla slammed the brakes down 49% compared to last year. Ouch.
00:21Analysts say one big reason could be Elon Musk himself. His recent ties to a controversial
00:26US government task force, the Department of Government Efficiency, have sparked backlash
00:31overseas. Europeans, it seems, aren't impressed by the Musk-Trump bromance. The bigger picture
00:37isn't looking better either. Tesla sales from January to April are down 40% year-on-year in
00:43Europe. And while Tesla's slipping, rivals are racing ahead. Chinese EV giant BYD is eating up
00:50market share with more affordable options. And guess what? European drivers are also showing
00:55love to hybrids, preferring a mix of fuel and battery over fully electric cars.
01:01So, is this the beginning of the end for Tesla in Europe? Or just a rough patch?
01:06Musk says he's still fully committed to Tesla. But the numbers tell a different story.
