Tesla: Breaking by 71%! Elon Musk provided chaos from investors!

Nicht angegeben - The electric car maker Tesla faces considerable challenges that are reflected in the current financial figures. According to Welt.de , the company's profit fell by alarming 71 percent to just $ 409 million in the last quarter. Against the background of a decline in sales, this development shows 9 percent to over $ 19.3 billion compared to the previous year. Experts had expressed higher expectations with a forecast of $ 21 billion in sales and a profit per share of $ 0.39.

Another concern of concern is the decline in vehicle deliveries. From January to March 2025, Tesla delivered 13 percent fewer cars than in the same period of the previous year. The reason for this are, among other things, the switch to a new generation of Model Y and a production change that negatively affected the demand for the older model variants. In addition, the outdated model range and a lower incentive for buyers of the old models are mentioned as co -caused for the weak demand.

political engagement as a brake block?

The political commitment of Elon Musk is increasingly identified as another factor that could deter potential buyers. The analyst Dan Ives estimates that Musk's promotions could permanently push the demand for Tesla's vehicles by 15 to 20 percent. However, Musk itself has announced that it will spend less time with political activities in the future, which could possibly stabilize the share price.

After the improved gross margin was announced in the automotive business of 12.5 percent, which was over the expectations of 11.8 percent, the Tesla share increased by 1 percent. The market reacted even more clearly to Musk's announcement that it will only take political obligations for 1-2 days a week in the future-the share then increased by 4 percent. Despite these positive short -term reactions, the overall picture is depressing: since the beginning of the year, the shares have fallen by 40 percent, which corresponds to a loss of market value of over 500 billion dollars.

successes in 2023

Automobil-Industrie.Vogel.de, a total of almost 1.81 million cars were delivered, which has been delivered from around 38 percent compared to the previous year corresponds. In the fourth quarter of 2023, 484,507 vehicles were delivered alone. The sales figures reflect the targets of Elon Musk, who had sought a sales number of around 1.8 million vehicles.

The majority of the vehicles sold were the Model 3 and Model Y models with a total of 1.74 million units. In addition, Tesla was able to overtake the Chinese competitor BYD, who sold around 1.57 million battery electric vehicles in the same year. In 2022, Tesla had fallen behind BYD with 1.31 million BEVS sold, who at that time held first place with 1.85 million. In view of the stagnating sales in the new financial year, the industry is eagerly awaited in how Tesla will master the challenges.

Lastly confirmed Musk that the production of a cheaper model variant should begin in the first half of 2025, while a detailed forecast of overall annual development will be published in the coming quarterly report, taking into account the changing global customs policy.
