Summary

Tesla reported its worst quarterly results in four years, with Q1 income down 71% and EV sales falling 13%.

Elon Musk vowed to refocus on Tesla amid backlash over his political role in the Trump Administration’s DOGE program, but analysts doubt his return will fix worsening issues.

Tesla faces eroding market share, failed products like the Cybertruck, and a coming 145% tariff on imported Chinese battery cells set to hammer the company’s battery pack business, one of the only bright spots last quarter.

Musk’s pivot to robotaxis and humanoid robots lacks credibility, and critics say Tesla has no compelling new EVs to revive growth.

It’s not like he had a lot of ideas to start with. I mean what has he tried other that whining about people being mean to him and getting his bum-buddy to call people that vandalise his cars ‘terrorists’?

Has he tried not being a gigantic toxic cunt?

Or withdrawing so someone with braincells can actually do something with the company?

He could just get on his big fucking rocket, fly to Mars and never come back. That’s the best thing he could do for Tesla and everybody on this planet.

Resign as CEO!

He needs to carry a sink into headquarters for some reason. Then put a giant neon X on top of the building after rebranding the company to CarX. He could also fire up a few more gas turbines in Memphis.
