US EV sales smash records in August as Tesla loses ground | Electrek

Tesla along with all EVs will show a lift for August and September due to the U.S. EV credits expiring once again. Tesla will use this as an excuse for It's worst sales decline ever in q4.

Had the opportunity of doing a smaller model 2 to appease European and Chinese market.  Decides to use shock value and develop a divisive land boat that is unsellable in Europe.  Decides to keep lying about FSD and using Tesla vision instead of market leading technology pretending to be a visionary Regardless, Stocks go up 📈  Memelon

Lol they are still down YoY per the article and only 38% market share which is incredibly terrible for them. Just boggles the mind that they gave up competing right before the competition arrives Of course stock will probably jump another 30% because Q2 2026 Elon says they'll sell ten trillion robots

These are the figures for August, and they are down, there will be no September surge.

Good point, it's amazing that Tesla sales were down overall in August. They were running down over 12% in the U.S. through the first half of the year but saw a 3% increase in U.S. sales for August while overall U.S. EV sales were up 14%.  They are getting a lift in U.S. sales from the expiring credits just not enough to stop the bleeding overall. Once they lose that lift in Oct I think we'll see sales decreases at more than -20% for all of q4.

Tesla continues to lose market share everywhere and yet it's stock continues to go up. Someone explain this to me.

Tesla stock price is only go up $$$

Didn't tesla pull this trick buying its own cars in Canada just before the credits expired there. I wonder if they're trying that again

I'm at a loss. I've read the comment on this sub that it has to be a foreign power that has more to gain from our government by propping up Tesla stock than they lose by investing in it. This makes more sense than to blame the irrational value on being a meme stock.

AI, robots, um fighting robots. I'm smart. Musk probably.

Put one of Elon’s robots up against Tomb Stone. That would be some great Robot Fighting Time!

Elon always finds something to talk about that is "just around the corner" and will be so for the next 10 years.

Tesla will go x10, musk will get his 1t paypackage. I have zero doubt in the matter, not because of the companies succes, but just magic....

I have little doubt that he will get the 1t paypackage

There will be no investigation in the US because DOGE fired them all

I think its the saudis

It easily could be. Whoever it is I'll bet Musk was paid back every penny he spent to buy the election for Trump and part of the agreement was to prop up his stock.

I hope everyone believes that. At least until the October earnings call.

He has both Saudi and Russian backing— remember the World Cup photo he was hanging out with a Kremlin propagandist, and Dana Rohrabacher (iykyk) was one of his big original Space X promoters to NASA…

Professional hype man.
