1. Tesla's Q2 deliveries fell 13.5% year-over-year. 2. Chinese market demand decline impacted Tesla's performance significantly. 3. Despite discounts, sales did not improve as expected. 4. Competition from local EV brands further pressures Tesla demand. 5. Tesla stock is down 21.5% year-to-date in 2025.
The decline in vehicle deliveries and increased competition signals weakening demand, reminiscent of past struggles in 2017 when demand dipped leading to price corrections.
