How much have Tesla sales dropped?
- Tesla’s global EV sales fell from 1.79 million in 20246 to 1.64 million in 20255, a drop of 153,097 units, or 8.56%. That came after the first-ever annual decline in 2024, when sales slipped by 19,355 units, or 1.07%, from 1.81 million in 202316.
What are the main reasons for the decline in Tesla sales?
- The decline continued in 2025, and the reasons piled up: stiffer competition from BYD, Kia, Hyundai and Volkswagen, and a consumer backlash in Europe and the U.S. against Elon Musk’s politics, from his role at the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) to his endorsement of Germany’s Alternative für Deutschland (AfD) party. The $7,500 U.S. federal EV incentive ended on September 30, 2025, which pulled sales forward into the third quarter and left fourth-quarter deliveries about 16% below a year earlier. A new, more affordable Model Y in October did not fully turn things around.17
- Tesla itself attributed its 9% fall in 2025 automotive revenue to roughly 8% fewer deliveries and a lower average selling price, driven by sales mix and heavier customer incentives such as financing offers, in a year of new tariffs and expired EV incentives.18
- Those pressures built on 2024’s first-ever dip, when demand cooled in big markets, rivals launched cheaper EVs and the loss of U.S. tax breaks made Teslas less affordable.
- Elon Musk’s controversies kept Tesla in the headlines, factory retooling and parts delays slowed deliveries, and higher interest rates and inflation made buying a car more expensive.
Tesla Global Market Share (2025)
- Tesla took about 7.79% of the global EV market in 2025: 1.64 million of the 21 million EVs sold worldwide19.
- That leaves Tesla plenty of room to grow as worldwide demand for electric cars keeps rising.
What is Tesla’s most popular electric car model?
Tesla Model Y was the most popular model, with an estimated 1,069,846 units sold worldwide in 2025 — the world’s best-selling EV for the fourth year running, though down about 9% on 2024.20
- The Model 3 came second, with an estimated 518,274 sold in 2025, down about 1% on 2024; it ranked third among all EVs worldwide.20
- Tesla doesn’t report sales by model, so the Model Y and Model 3 figures are estimates taken from CleanTechnica’s full-year 2025 sales ranking. Tesla’s own figures put deliveries of all other models combined (Model S, Model X and Cybertruck) at 50,850 for the full year 20255.

- Europe was the weak spot: Germany fell 48.4% to 19,390 registrations26, and in France the Model Y and Model 3 sold 19,207 and 6,128 units (down 32.8% and 47.3%)27, leaving the two countries together at under 8% of US volume.
