Tesla's quarterly results are India Movies | Adult Movies Onlinein, and it seems the panic alarm finally went off.
Analyst expectations for Tesla's first quarter of 2025 were already pretty grim, but Tesla handily beat them with a 71 percent drop in profit and a 20 percent drop in car sales, with the only thing keeping the company in the green for the quarter being $595 million in carbon credit sales.
While the sales drop can partially be attributed to the launch of Tesla's updated Model Y, it's now obvious that Musk's political engagement, which includes running the so-called Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), has been giving potential Tesla buyers pause. DOGE, which is supposed to be cutting unnecessary government expenses, has instead wreaked havoc inside the federal government, with fairly little to show for it.
Musk's endorsement of far right political options probably isn't helping either, especially in Europe, where Tesla sales have plummeted in recent months.
It seems that Musk is finally getting the message — partially, at least. During Tesla's earnings call on Tuesday, he said his time allocation to DOGE would drop "significantly" starting in May. Musk also said he plans to allocate "far more" of his time to Tesla.
He will not, however, leave DOGE completely, as long as the president would like him to stay, and "as long as it's useful".
During the call, Musk also complained about Trump's tariffs on China, which hurt Tesla's profits, as well as claiming that the increasingly widespread Tesla boycotts are the work of those who oppose Musk's work at DOGE.
As for Tesla's future plans, Musk was surprisingly timid. In June, the company will launch "fully autonomous" taxi rides in Austin, Texas, but they won't be Tesla Cybercabs. Instead, the company will launch the autonomous rides with Tesla Model Ys. Musk also said that Tesla Optimus robots will be working in Tesla factories by year's end, though the humanoid robot is also affected by Trump's tariffs.
