CNN AKA woke MSM that are at war with Tesla and Elon Musk. WTF do they know about trucks.

Any time I see "CNN" I just roll my eyes and look forward to "how did they spin and add bias to THIS topic"...

In the old days, a journalist would be DEEPLY KNOWLEDGEABLE" about a given topic, THEN be hired by a news agency...

NOW its just like "see that screen over there? Just read it well and look good. GO"..

One nice thing, then a backhand, another nice thing and another backhand.. and repeat over and over.

Legacy reporting on anything Tesla.

Thanks to OP for posting the content here so we don’t have to go to the CNN website. Amusing but meaningless story they cooked up for their audience.

This article will age poorly.

Six months later, we can confirm that the article aged rather poorly.

Cybertruck is the #1 EV pickup truck with a massive 30% market share. And the cheaper version isn't even out yet.

That horrible legacy appendage called "Main Stream Media" that is in the process of being gutted by instant information on platforms like X. MSM gets around 25% of their revenue from auto companies, gas and oil companies and associated businesses (like auto insurance, tires, etc).

Oh geez, give it a rest man.

The mainstream media has done a terrible job during my lifetime.

I recognized this very early on, so I decided to leverage their consistent misinformation to my financial gain by becoming a contrarian investor. I just buy stock in the companies they tell me are terrible.

It's worked out fabulously!

It won't take long for legacy cars to be the ones that have unfamiliar controls if Tesla continues to increase their share of the automotive market at the same rate they have been doing for over a decade. Since 2012, Tesla has increased their market share every single year and that trends looks to continue for as far as the eye can see.

Unless things change drastically this year, sales will be down in Europe and NA (globally as well) for Tesla compared to last year and the market share of EVs has dropped for the last few years. In 2020 Tesla had 74% of the market share for EVs compared to 49% this year.

I don't even need to read or click any link knowing this is from "CNN"! They cannot perform basic journalism let alone properly review a modern marvel!

Yeah, but that's more because Tesla has refused to reduce their margins to less than double what the margin of other automakers.

They dropped from 30.5% (2021) to 14.6% (2024). The stock market has not been kind to this drop. Many believe the CT is bringing that number down, so we'll see where things are as the CT becomes profitable.

Edit: Each year they've come down. 30.5 to 25.6 to 19.4 and now 14.6.

The stock market wasn't kind to Elon selling off stock and using the company as a piggy-bank.

Tesla also hasn't met sales projections, and is planning to not expand.

The stock market will also not be kind to that, either.

The numbers this year show that despite Tesla's warnings the Cybertruck would reduce margins, the revenue per vehicle has ticked upwards.

Incorrect.

EV marketshare has increased each and every year since I've been keeping track, back to 2010. That includes the most recent year, 2023, and for 2024 EV sales are on track to have another record breaking year.

Your problem is you have been listening to the mainstream media pushing false narratives. They do this because they know it will encourage people to avoid EVs. They still haven't told you that the best-selling car in the world last year was an American car, and it's a pure electric car, the Tesla Model Y.

The Tesla Model Y outsold every gas car offered in the most recent year.

ICE sales are the ones declining, not EVs. And any reasonable analyst will tell you that trend is highly unlikely to reverse:

Here's more EV market share using actual sales data up to the most recent year of sales:

Yes, EV market share continues to grow every year, not shrink.
