Eventually you will hear people reporting a rise of sales. They sell 1 car. The month after 2 cars. = 100% SALES INCREASE

Believe or not, that's bullish news to TSLA investors.

Schoeddl 2025-11-03 17:00

Naturally! The transformation from car manufacturer to “The Oberhammer will soon be on the market” is almost complete! New price target $880!

Durzel 2025-11-03 17:02

Stock up on the news, as one might expect.

LVegasGuy 2025-11-03 17:06

No worries flying Teslas are coming soon.

Low-Possibility-7060 2025-11-03 17:15

I will open a bottle of champagne when that cursed stock is where it belongs - somewhere at $25

TheMegaDriver2 2025-11-03 17:16

Teslaboi just hodl!

PowerFarta 2025-11-03 17:22

Well they're not a car company they want to build a robot army controlled by mechahitler

Here in a medium size city in Canada, I simply don't see the new models driving around. You'd have to be comfortable as an ultra super douchebag to be seen on one.

A bunch of states are still missing. Do we have any numbers for Germany, UK, France,...? Also, the drop in Norway is notable, since Tesla was actually doing great in Norway in Q2 and Q3.

Take this news with a grain of salt. All Berlin Y builds have been shipped off to Canada for the last month. All European markets are having there orders filled end November/december. Myself and 5 others all have a date of end of November for orders placed in September. Sales guy told me they haven’t received stock since September and expect to see very large quantities towards the end of the quarter. Foreign markets are being filled first to ensure deliveries before end of quarter

Stock up today: +12.54 (2.75%)

BringBackUsenet 2025-11-03 18:08

When was it ever a car company? It's a fantasy company that spews out a few baubles to keep the illusion working.

BringBackUsenet 2025-11-03 18:09

You left out the decimal point: $2.5

Exile20 2025-11-03 18:16

Is that why he mentioned flying cars?

bluejayinoz 2025-11-03 18:28

Wish these articles were just a table of data

fastwriter- 2025-11-03 18:33

Germanys numbers do come out next week most probably. Because registration is done with the City Admin where you live. And due to high data security regulations, the Kraftfahrtbundesamt as the central vehicle registry has to wait for the Data being sent by the Cities. It’s not an automated process.

Sir_Isaac_Tootin 2025-11-03 19:35

\-France +2% YoY, +36% vs July

admin_default 2025-11-03 19:36

Too real.

Sir_Isaac_Tootin 2025-11-03 19:37

So there's still enough local demand for Berlin to churn out 500k/year just for Europe like Edolf foretold? Interesting.

Pineapplepizzaracoon 2025-11-03 19:48

It just gives them more room to grow. Calls on tesler

techbunnyboy 2025-11-03 20:14

Sales continuously falling, stock rising continuously. Isnt it obvious?

Agitated_Winner9568 2025-11-03 22:52

Next quarter he will announce teleporting cars. We may even get quantum tunneling cars that can transport you to far away galaxies by the end of 2026. This should push the stock well above $1000.

[https://teslamotorsclub.com/tmc/threads/tesla-europe-registration-stats.61651/](https://teslamotorsclub.com/tmc/threads/tesla-europe-registration-stats.61651/) Previous years are linked at the top. They don't give you market share though. The best site for that is [https://eu-evs.com/latest](https://eu-evs.com/latest)

Thanks! Much easier to see it was a bad month on that. Wonder if uk will follow the trend, as their biggest market in eu.

capital_folly 2025-11-04 04:23

Those numbers line up almost perfectly with the shift Tesla made earlier this year, away from volume (Model 2) toward narrative control around Robotaxi. I broke down that decision framework a while back. DM if you want the link.

Icy-Foundation6540 2025-11-04 05:33

UK was at 511 Units or down about 45%. Really everybody was down big except France, don't know why

DistributedView 2025-11-04 05:44

This "foreign markets being fulfilled first" is a line Tesla reps have been using for as long as Tesla have had sales reps. It doesn't explain why they often have cars parked up in fields/ car parks/ etc.in the run up to quarter ends so that the service center staff then run around like headless chickens trying to process all the cars out in the last week of the quarter. (And this seems to be the case in all markets) My suspicion is they have some factored supplier deal, probably with the cell supplier. Such a deal would look like "payment is due 28 days after vehicle is delivered", and would significantly skew their reported FCF. It probably explains the weird "Financially delivered" metric Tesla use.

bluejayinoz 2025-11-04 06:43

First link says they sold over 2k model y in September so something doesn't add up

Icy-Foundation6540 2025-11-04 06:52

you'd have to use the second link. The UK has a daily reporting system, the info just hasn't posted yet on the first link.

TannedSam 2025-11-04 11:50

UK is down about 47%, but that only represents 462 deliveries.  In Q4 last year they delivered over 14k vehicles in the UK, but under a thousand in October.  So basically the trend is not looking good, but October means nothing. Same applies to Norway.  Tesla's October deliveries were less than 200 below what they did in the first month of Q3, and in Q3 they wound up beating Q4 of 2024 by over 2k vehicles over the course of the full quarter.   The data for the first month (really the first two) of each quarter is largely meaningless.  With that said, I am expecting huge discounts to be offered at the end of the quarter....

SquareJealous9388 2025-11-04 15:39

Luckily there is floor. Sales will not fall forever.

Yakydo 2025-11-04 16:59

You think Germany, UK, France are states? You must be American

happymancry 2025-11-04 22:29

You misplaced the decimal point: $0.25

y4udothistome 2025-11-05 20:19

The way these fucking investors are they don’t even have to do anything they’ll just talk themselves into raising the price till it hits 8.5 trillion
