Summary
Tesla reported its worst quarterly results in four years, with Q1 income down 71% and EV sales falling 13%.
Elon Musk vowed to refocus on Tesla amid backlash over his political role in the Trump Administration’s DOGE program, but analysts doubt his return will fix worsening issues.
Tesla faces eroding market share, failed products like the Cybertruck, and a coming 145% tariff on imported Chinese battery cells set to hammer the company’s battery pack business, one of the only bright spots last quarter.
Musk’s pivot to robotaxis and humanoid robots lacks credibility, and critics say Tesla has no compelling new EVs to revive growth.
It’s not like he had a lot of ideas to start with. I mean what has he tried other that whining about people being mean to him and getting his bum-buddy to call people that vandalise his cars ‘terrorists’?
He can kill himself, that might do the trick, like samurai of old
It’s fun to intentionally misread this headline so instead of “Elon Musk is running out of ideas with which to save Tesla” it’s “Elon Musk is going to save Tesla by running out of terrible ideas to impose on the company”
I actually think it is too late to save the brand but I could be wrong idk
Maybe he can have xai buy it, that’s his plan for his other failing businesses
He should try killing himself.
Well if I’m gonna spend money on it I gotta know it’s elon musk’s suicide car! … Ok, What colors does it come in?
I don’t understand how he doesn’t understand that the problem is him.
Surely somebody has got to have the balls to tell him that the reason why everyone fucking hates Teslas is him.
Deliberately threatening the cohort of people most likely to consider buying your vehicles isn’t exactly a winning strategy. Elon asking ‘how do I woo Tesla buyers back?’ is like the Governor of California asking ‘How do we woo Canadian tourists back?’
You don’t. It’s like asking ‘how big does the bribe have to be for you to sacrifice your every principle?’ You can’t. There is no argument you can make that isn’t fundamentally offensive on its face. That market is gone forever.
They’re also getting crushed by the competition
Has he tried not being a gigantic toxic cunt?
Too late
Or withdrawing so someone with braincells can actually do something with the company?
He doesn’t have ideas, he has money to buy people with ideas. His bloated ego won’t let him do that, though.
He does that all the time. He never built anything on its own. He stole them from others and sold them as his own inventions.
No no no, he also bullied people into working 14 hours days to build things that he wanted. Gotta give him credit for that at least.
I have an idea…
Resign as CEO!
I have a great idea about what he could do to save Tesla but i don’t think i can say it here
He needs to carry a sink into headquarters for some reason. Then put a giant neon X on top of the building after rebranding the company to CarX. He could also fire up a few more gas turbines in Memphis.
I never put it together before, but it’s wild that Elon has had Trump’s ear this whole time and didn’t manage to carve out an exception for the tariffs for his own company. Like he’s even bad at basic corruption.
He could just get on his big fucking rocket, fly to Mars and never come back. That’s the best thing he could do for Tesla and everybody on this planet.
How about they call it Cyberfuck and include a built in fleshlight to jerk off the incels who buy this trash
dicksucker’s union at the dicksucking factory won’t allow their jobs to be taken away by automation like that though
we need tariffs to bring back the manly dicksucking jobs stolen from us by communist chinese peasants
