Elon Musk’s Tesla is facing a global assault and nothing sums up the nightmare situation better than Australia.
Tesla’s Australian sales slide has continued, with the brand recording a significant reduction in sales last month compared to the previous year.
The nation’s best-selling electric vehicle brand recorded 1592 sales in February, which was more than double the disastrous 739 deliveries notched in January.
But that number is significantly down on the 5665 sales of February 2024.
That represents a reduction of more than 70 per cent.
The manufacturer is in interesting territory, fighting soft demand for electric vehicles and an increasingly hostile response toward chief executive Elon Musk.
Vandals have targeted Tesla vehicles around the globe, even prompting some owners to disguise their vehicles as other models.
