T-Online: Survey shows that more than 94% of Germans explicitly refuse to buy Tesla

Recently, a new survey of 100,000 Germans conducted by T-Online, one of Germany's largest online portals, showed that only 3% of respondents would still consider buying Tesla. About 100,000 readers participated in the vote, setting a new record, and more than 94% of users said they would no longer buy Tesla, indicating that Germans are moving away from Tesla .

Data shows that in 2024, the country's overall sales of electric vehicles increased by 27%, but Tesla's sales in Germany fell 41% year-on-year.

The situation at the beginning of this year was even more serious. In the first two months of the year, there was a sharp drop of 70% year-on-year . This situation has caused people to worry about Tesla's future prospects in Germany.

There are many reasons for Tesla's declining sales, including intensified competition in the electric vehicle market and the replacement of Model Y.

Other industry experts pointed out that an important reason for Tesla's declining sales in Germany is that Germans are dissatisfied with Tesla CEO Elon Musk's interference in local elections and support for the far-right Alternative for Germany (AfD).

Previously, he was accused of giving a "Hitler-style" salute at Trump's inauguration and making some controversial remarks, which caused his image in Germany to plummet.

Although some Tesla shareholders hope that the launch of the new Model Y will be able to reverse the downward trend, the outlook is not optimistic at the moment. After all, Model 3 sales are also declining, which shows that the problem does not lie with a particular model.
