Tesla protests are beginning to get more organized.

Stock down 7.5% today after 10/10 Robotaxi event. Elon arrives nearly an hour late and showed off concepts of a plan of cybercab and cyberbus.

Not Tesla but Fisker EVa are famously connected and techno-enabled.

The title to this article is too long. I slightly edited it down slightly bending Rule5.

I have the filing in another topic on this community (Greenspan v Musk topic). But this blogpost / commentary is easier for people to read.

A rare Electrek article, but a goodie and ironic.

Aaron Greenspan files court documents vs Elon Musk regarding alleged fraud in Tesla.

"No Alarm, No Notifications to my phone... literally nothing happened just found it like this..." wrote Cybertruck owner Anuj Thakker, who shared the upsetting news on Facebook a few days ago.

At the recent World Robot Conference in Beijing, myriad companies showed up with bots in tow. Robots were making food, playing instruments, even challenging kids at board games. Tesla, however, did nothing of the sort — instead leaving Optimus trapped behind glass.

There weren't many Tesla Semis. For one to catch on fire like this is not a good look.

Kadyrov, aka the Chechen leader of the pro-Russian "Tiktok Battalion", has mysteriously gained a Cybertruck despite US Sanctions.

Another FSD killing.

Just more FSD / Summon Bullshit, showing off how bad Tesla's sensor suite actulaly is.

Big declines in TSLA profitability this past quarter.

But Musk later changed his mind, reportedly donating $45 million a month of his money to the pro-Trump political action committee American PAC.

But even as sales for EVs are reaching record highs, Tesla's control over the market is starting to seriously wane, slipping below 50 percent in the second quarter of this year, the New York Times reports. Tesla represented 49.7 percent of EV sales over that period, down from 59.3 percent in Q2 of last year.

The NHTSA recall notice contains a line saying how many Tesla Cybertrucks were affected by the recall. And we know that its "all of them", therefore the number listed is exactly the count of total Tesla Cybertrucks ever sold.

A complete recall over all Cybertrucks has been filed at the NHTSA.

Another unintended acceleration issue. Fortunately, no one was injured but the Cybertruck still crashed into a house.

A nice analysis of various satellite images that estimates how many cars Tesla has in inventory.

SAN FRANCISCO — Tesla shareholders re-approved Elon Musk’s controversial 2018 pay package by a wide margin, Musk posted on X Wednesday night, appearing to resolve an uncertainty that has loomed over his future with the company.

Elon Musk's Twitter Purchase, not the $44 Billion part, the 5%+ part in March 2022 (when Elon crossed the 5% legal threshold wherein he was required to report becoming a large stakeholder publicly).

Calpers owns roughly 9.5 million Tesla shares, making it among the electric vehicle maker’s 30 largest investors, according to data compiled by Bloomberg.

This is the big letter from Pension-funds about the upcoming Tesla vote on Elon Musk's pay package, board of directors, and the move to Texas (away from Delaware) as corporate headquarters.

Tesla claim to be the safest car, yet they let this slip.

TL;DR: Porsche 911 wins everything, even the 1/8th mile... even the slowest Porsche 911 they could find.

This fresh post from teamblind.com suggests another round of layoffs has already begun at Tesla.

Yet another (effective) price cut from Tesla this past weekend. Sure, its not really a price cut, but with APYs this low, its clear that Tesla is eating the cost of the loan.

naLP67 at Blind creating a rumor that 25% new layoffs are incoming. This here is a "Threads" where people are discussing the rumor.

This is a week-old article now, but its huge proof of the growing Tesla inventory problem. Tesla simply isn't selling all their vehicles anymore, and thus large scale storage sites like this Chesterfield Mall are seeing a huge number of Tesla vehicles pile up in storage.

Hertz auctions aren't quite the used market entirely, but its somewhat of an indicator of where Tesla vehicles are in the used market.

Seems like the layoffs haven't ended yet as more-and-more former Tesla workers are saying that they've been laid off.

The price of electric cars is plummeting so fast that they’re now almost as cheap as gas-powered cars.

A lot of senior-level layoffs.

Tesla's deal with Baidu isn't new, the mapping data Tesla will collect likely can't leave China, and Full Self-Driving can't compete with more advanced Chinese alternatives

Next-generation battery technology, in the form of either Sodium-Ion batteries, or Solid-State Batteries, are beginning to come into mass production.

In total, NHTSA investigated 956 crashes, starting in January 2018 and extending all the way until August 2023. Of those crashes, some of which involved other vehicles striking the Tesla vehicle, 29 people died. There were also 211 crashes in which “the frontal plane of the Tesla struck a vehicle or obstacle in its path.” These crashes, which were often the most severe, resulted in 14 deaths and 49 injuries.

Article's introduction is everything you need to know.

A nifty little @threads post by esg.hound.

As Tesla car sales faltered, Musk delivered an optimistic pivot: Tesla isn't a car company.

The Texas-based car company reported net income of $1.1 billion for the January-to-March period, down 55% from the year prior. Revenue fell 9% to $21.3 billion.

Everyone remember that Tesla truck project?

TheVerge making a doozy of a 🔥🔥🔥 headline here, but they're right.

Further price cuts announced by Tesla.

According to the food-and-drinks maker and one of its executives with knowledge of the deal, PepsiCo was using only 36 of Teslas promised 100 electric trucks as of this month.

This is some good looking analysis on Tesla's current problems.

`Nuff Said.

Don't look now but Elon suddenly started to pay attention to Tesla and has begun to micromanage Tesla prices and deliveries.

Some details coming out of the layoffs from yesterday.

Hard to believe, but IMO TechCrunch is a reliable source. The citations just come down to some Elon Musk tweets, but they seem more "serious" than his usual 3am crap.

Over at /r/RealTesla on Reddit, there are already two posts from people who were locked out of their jobs this morning (!!!). It looks like this round of layoffs happened extremely quickly, possibly illegally quickly. (I thought there was a WARN notice required for a mass layoff in the state of California?)

Threads / TikTok video showing off a Cybertruck problem where the accelerator pedal got stuck on max acceleration.

The factory floors at America’s top seller of electric vehicles are rife with racial harassment, sexual abuse, and injuries on the job.
