Douglas McIntyre, Editor-in-Chief at Climate Crisis 24/7, reports that Tesla has lost its leading position in Europe’s EV market, now overtaken by China’s BYD. In April, BYD’s sales surged by 169% while Tesla’s declined sharply. McIntyre also points out that Tesla’s situation in China has worsened, where the company has fallen to sixth or seventh place, far behind BYD, which now leads both Chinese and global EV sales.
