Tesla's brand loyalty collapsed after Musk backed Trump, data shows
UNITED STATES, AUG 4 – Tesla's U.S. customer loyalty dropped from 73% to below industry average after Musk's Trump endorsement, with sales down 8% in early 2025, analysts say.
- Tesla's customer loyalty declined sharply after CEO Elon Musk endorsed President Donald Trump, according to data from S&P Global Mobility shared exclusively with Reuters.
- The peak customer loyalty for Tesla was 73% in June 2024, but it fell to 49.9% last March, just below the industry average.
- Analysts stated that Musk's political involvement turned off Tesla's eco-conscious customer base, leading to the decline in loyalty.
- Despite the drop in loyalty, Brian Mulberry of Zacks Investment Management remains optimistic about Tesla's long-term earnings from robotaxi operations and self-driving technology licensing.
