How Tesla lost some of its biggest fans
- Tesla is facing a crisis in 2025 with plunging sales, spreading protests, and investor panic worldwide.
- The crisis follows Musk's growing political ties and actions, including support for far-right parties and work in the Trump administration.
- Sales dropped sharply by 76% in Germany, 71% in Australia, and 49% for China-made models globally amid competition and price cuts squeezing profits.

- The crisis has damaged Tesla’s brand and sales may continue to stagnate, although fresh leadership or political deals could alter the company’s trajectory.
