Why are Tesla Model Y sales falling?

  • In 2024, Model Y sales fell 3.1% from 20232, mainly because buyers held off for the refreshed Model Y, which dented demand early in the year.

  • Sales fell again in 2025 in all three of the Model Y's biggest markets: China (-11.4%, from 480,3097 to 425,337)1, the United States (-4.0%)8 and Europe (-28%, from 209,2149 to 149,805)10. In China, local rivals added pressure: in January 2026, Xiaomi's YU7 took the Model Y's title as the country's best-selling EV.1
