Sales of new Tesla cars in Europe dropped 44% last month, indicating a potential buyer backlash against Elon Musk's controversial behavior and political interventions.
Tesla's market share in Europe fell to 9.6% in February, the lowest in five years.
Tesla's Model Y overhaul and increased competition in the EV market are also factors contributing to the decline in sales.
Rival automakers like Volkswagen, BMW, and BYD reported significant sales increases in electric vehicles in Europe.
