Tesla's California sales down for seven straight quarters

UNITED STATES, JUL 22 – Tesla’s revenue from regulatory credit sales is expected to drop 21% this year and may disappear by 2027 due to recent U.S. policy changes reducing automaker fines.

  • Tesla disclosed that U.S. policy changes are reducing demand for regulatory credits, causing expected revenue declines and impacting profitability.
  • U.S. policy shifts, including legislation under President Donald Trump, eliminated CAFE fines, reducing demand for zero-emission vehicle production credits.
  • Credit revenue will fall 21% this year to $2.17bn, 14 analysts polled by Visible Alpha report, as U.S. policy changes reduce demand for regulatory credits.

  • Next year, analysts polled by Visible Alpha expect credit revenue to fall to $595m, indicating a long-term decline.
