American car manufacturer Tesla, owned by Elon Musk, announced today that its sales decreased by 15.6% year-on-year in the fourth quarter of 2025. This follows the end of government subsidies for electric vehicles in the United States. The company stated that it delivered 418,227 cars to its customers worldwide during the fourth quarter. These figures mean that Tesla recorded its second consecutive annual sales decline, which fell by 8.5% throughout 2025, reaching just over 1.636 million vehicles.
