The Tesla’s nightmare continues with a Musk warning from the upcoming “coarse circles”

Tesla profits in the second quarter draw a bleak picture: decrease in profits, decline in sales, and a reputation that reaches abuse.

Carmaker All-Electric has recorded a net income of $ 1.17 billion, a decrease of 16.3 % from the same period in 2024. Revenue decreased by 12 % to $ 22.5 billion from $ 25.5 billion in the previous year, representing the second quarter in a row in a row of profits and patients this year.

The reason is clear: Tesla sells fewer cars and lowering prices to hunt the demand. Delivery operations decreased by 13.5 % in the second quarter, indicating the low decline.

Tesla problems about the economy. Elon Musk CEO has become one of the most attractive figures in the company’s world. He achieved his political axis – taking into account nearly 290 million dollars to help Donald Trump returning to the White House in 2024 and later joined the Trump administration as head of the Ministry of Government efficiency (DOGE) – in global reactions. Duji Al -Shaya began to reduce the federal agency budgets strongly, which sparked protests outside the Tesla showrooms around the world, and most importantly, turning the company’s basic customer base. By becoming a prominent face of management and defending right -wing reasons, Musk pushed liberal buyers in the United States and Europe who mainly formed Tesla’s support. Sales made a blow.

Musk resigned from Dog in May to re -focus on Tesla, but the damage caused. In addition to the drama, a new political party recently launched the American Party, pledged field candidates in the mid -period elections 2026 after falling with Trump.

“Maybe we can have a few circles. I don’t say that we will do, but we can,” Musa admitted to Profit call With analysts.

The road forward looks brutal. The “one beautiful beautiful bill”, which was signed on July 4, kills the Federal Federal Tax Credit of $ 7,500 as of September 30. This means that slopes are about to get older. The same law sabotages the sanctions in the clean air of car manufacturers who fail in emissions standards, which ends the flow of the main Tesla revenue from selling regulatory credits to competitors. In the second quarter, these credit sales fell almost half, as it decreased to $ 439 million from 890 million dollars in the previous year.

“The beautiful draft beautiful law has many changes that will affect our work in the short term,” said financial director Vaibhav Taneja. Tesla, which makes most of its American cars in Freemon, California, Austin, Texas, is still highly dependent on raw materials and imported ingredients, making them vulnerable to tariffs.

“We started to see the impact of the definitions,” Taniga said. “In succession, the cost of definitions increased by about 300 million dollars with about two -thirds of this effect on cars and the rest on energy. However, given the cumin in manufacturing and sales, the full effect will occur in the following seasons.”

He warned: “The costs will increase in the short term. While we do our best to manage these effects, we are in an unexpected environment on the customs tariff front.”

The combination of slow demand, price discounts, the disappearance of EV incentives, and the increasing definitions indicate that Tesla profit pain does not go away soon. But in the profit call on Wednesday, Musk again photographed his vision for the future of Tesla, not as a car company, but as a robotics and power of Amnesty International based on human robots, automation and self -driving technology.

The problem? The launch of Tesla in late June showed a roboty in Austin behind it. Waymo, which is a subsidiary of itself in Google, is already a fully independent robot through multiple American cities and covers more than twice the Austin service area in Tesla. The small Tesla fleet, at the same time, is only an invitation and still requires a human supervisor in the passenger seat.
