The market for Teslas have been in the tank for at least a year, it’s not politics. It’s also not just Teslas, both new and used EV sales have tanked. Resale values have crashed, manufacturers are cancelling or delaying planned new models, and there are big incentives to be had for EVs sitting on the lot. I don’t recall the exact numbers but the majority of first time EV buyers are going back to ICE or hybrids and demand looks to have plateaued. Tesla is a lightning rod for a number of reasons, but it’s not just a Tesla issue.
