Tesla Isn’t a Car Company Anymore

gizmodo.com Luc Olinga 2026-01-06 23:15:12

Tesla may be in trouble. Investors and fans will get a clearer picture this Wednesday, July 23, when Elon Musk’s carmaker publishes its second-quarter earnings. There is no doubt that the core business is facing significant headwinds. The electric vehicle pioneer is expected to post a 13 percent drop in revenue and a 25 percent plunge in earnings per share. But if you only listen to Musk on the earnings call, you might not even hear the word “car.” Instead, expect a full-court press on robotaxi

Tesla Is the Least Trusted EV in the U.S., Survey Finds

Tesla’s reputation is in a crash it can’t control, much like the people who are behind the wheel when the car’s self-driving features fail to stop. In the latest Electric Vehicle Intelligence Report, Tesla saw its perception erode among consumers, leading to the company scoring the lowest trust score among all major EV makers. According to the survey, just 26% of participants have a somewhat or very positive view of Tesla—significantly outweighed by the 39% plurality who have a somewhat or very

A big problem for Tesla isn't getting much attention

news.ycombinator.com Chris Isidore 2026-01-08 08:44:04

CNN — For years, Tesla has earned billions of dollars from its competitors just for selling electric vehicles. But that windfall is about to go away, just when the company may need it the most. Regulatory credit sales have been a huge source of revenue for the automaker, which currently faces a sales and profit slump. Legacy automakers purchase credits from Tesla to keep selling gas-burning cars that would otherwise violate emission regulations and cost them a fine. But the Republican tax and
