Tesla Fans, Imagine If Tesla Actually Had 15 Models - CleanTechnica

The article from CleanTechnica discusses Tesla's declining sales in 2025 despite overall growth in the electric vehicle (EV) market. Tesla experienced sales drops in major regions including the US, Europe (nearly 30% decline), and China (its first decline there since 2020). While Tesla’s Model 3 and Model Y remain top sellers in many markets, the article argues that Tesla is not dominating the market as some fans claim. Globally, Tesla holds about 12% of the battery electric vehicle (BEV) market—second place behind BYD, which has around 17%—and Tesla’s market share in China and Europe is relatively low (around 5-6%). The author emphasizes that a declining sales trend over two years should prompt reflection rather than celebration. A key reason for Tesla’s sales challenges is its limited product lineup, with only two mass-market models launched in 2017 and 2020, and the recent Cybertruck launch receiving mixed reviews.
