Event summary
Tesla's EV registrations in Europe dropped 17% in January, marking its 13th consecutive month of sales declines on the continent. Meanwhile, Chinese competitor BYD saw its European sales soar by 165% in the same period, benefiting from the region's embrace of cheaper EVs and hybrids. This decline for Tesla is attributed to a lack of new, more affordable models and CEO Elon Musk's unpopularity in Europe, while the company shifts its focus to robotaxis and autonomous driving technology.
