Tesla down 65.4% in Switzerland in January as well.
Data point to watch is 3rd month/full quarter though.
Because Tesla never figured out how not to jerk its supply chain with sudden squirts in M3 of every Q.

The numbers paint a grim picture. Norway’s 88% collapse is particularly striking given it was one of Tesla’s few bright spots in 2025. The Netherlands (-67%) and UK (-57%) are experiencing similar freefall.

Quite shocking that the FT falls for this dumb geniusy rich narrative instead of debunking it. In particular, Musk's laughable valuation pumps.
All others in the top 10 could monetize.
All Musk has is a meme stock and 42% of a space company hanging at the bosoms of the federal government.
