Palo to Elon Musk, large companies are starting to return the keys to their Teslas: "We have also decided with whom we drive"

If it's already bad for Tesla to lose its individual customers, it's even worse that businesses are returning their cars, from construction companies to pharmaceuticals. Layoffs and dealership closures are on the horizon. Europe continues to turn its back on Elon Musk. It’s not just customers anymore; now it’s also businesses. The Danish construction company Tscherning is following in the footsteps of the pharmaceutical company Rossmann and announces that it has returned all its Tesla cars due to the political activities of its CEO. For Tesla, this is a very serious matter, as a significant portion of its sales in Europe comes from companies electrifying their vehicle fleets and purchasing large packages of electric cars.

Since the beginning of the year, Tesla's sales in Europe have dropped by 40%, and according to Elektrek, layoffs and dealership closures are to be expected.

Tscherning returns its Tesla cars

Last year, when Elon Musk began appearing at Donald Trump's meetings, the European pharmaceutical chain Rossmann sold its entire fleet of Tesla cars. This week, the Danish construction company Tscherning returned all its vehicles.
