E-car sector in transition - Tesla slips further

VW doubles e-car deliveries

Tesla $TSLA (-2,92%)slips further - VW on the upswing

• The US electric car manufacturer Tesla is still unable to capitalize on the upswing in the European electric car market.
• In April, the company of controversial CEO Elon Musk suffered another severe setback.
• Once again, new registrations in the European Union plummeted, this time by more than half, according to data from the European manufacturers' association Acea.
• After the first four months of the year, Tesla had to cope with a drop of a good 46 percent to just 41,677 cars.
• Although the EU car market as a whole has been treading water so far this year, the electric car market in particular is picking up strongly again after last year's weakness.
• In the first four months of the year, 15.3% of new registrations in the EU were battery-powered cars, compared to just 12% a year earlier.
• In terms of units, growth amounted to over a quarter.

VW $VOW (-0,41%)doubles e-car deliveries

• Tesla is coming under increasing pressure in a market for which the controversial entrepreneur Musk has set up his so-called gigafactory in Grünheide, just outside Berlin, and invested billions in.
• Not only is Volkswagen now getting up to speed with its electric cars and is miles ahead of Tesla - the Wolfsburg-based company more than doubled its deliveries of purely electric vehicles in Europe in the first quarter.
• The Chinese electric world market leader BYD ("Build Your Dreams") is also breathing down Musk's neck - what's more, it has now overtaken him in Europe in terms of pure electric drives (BEV - battery electric vehicles).
• According to data from market researchers at Jato Dynamics, this was the case for the first time in April.

BYD $1211 (-3,89%)from China overtakes Tesla

• In Jato's figures - which cover 28 countries instead of just the EU - BYD came in a hair's breadth ahead of Tesla with 7,231 cars in April.
• Despite the small lead, Jato analyst Felipe Munoz spoke of a "turning point" for the European car market, especially as Tesla has been leading the market for years and BYD only really got going late.
• BYD is currently relying heavily on dealers' own registrations and sales to car rental companies, as data from the Federal Motor Transport Authority shows for Germany, the largest car market in the EU.
• In the first four months, only just under twelve percent of the 2,791 newly registered BYD models in Germany went to private owners.
• It is true that sales to companies in Germany generally account for the lion's share of registrations for other car manufacturers too.
• However, the proportion of private buyers at BYD is very low: Mercedes, for example, accounts for almost 37 percent and the VW Passenger Cars brand for around 26 percent.

$TSLA (-2,92%)

A car is driving along a country road, the driver is relaxed. Suddenly, the steering wheel turns automatically and the car plunges into the ditch. The driver? Was just a passenger at that moment. That's what happened.

By Dieter Petereit

An incident in the US state of Alabama in which a Tesla Model 3 with "Full Self-Driving" (FSD) activated rolled over is currently causing a stir. As Electrek reports, the vehicle left the road for no apparent reason, collided with a fence and landed on its roof. The driver "Wally" escaped with minor injuries.

"I was on my way to work and had Full Self-Driving on," Electrek quotes him as saying. "The steering wheel suddenly started to turn quickly, the car went into the ditch, hit a tree and overturned. I didn't have time to react."

That would be very worrying: shadows as the cause of the accident?

The Tesla was equipped with the latest hardware 4 and a current FSD software version (v13.2.8). An official cause of the accident is still pending, but a controversial theory is being discussed in the community. In a much-noticed thread on Reddit, users speculate that the system may have misinterpreted the shadows of trees on the road as an obstacle and initiated an abrupt evasive maneuver.

The connection to the installed technology is piquant. Last year, we at t3n already reported on various problems and an increased error rate in the Hardware 4. It is unclear whether there is a connection to the current crash, but it raises further questions about the reliability of the platform.

Not an isolated case: Tesla's controversial autopilot software

The incident is the latest in a long series of incidents that have raised doubts about the safety of Tesla's driver assistance systems. According to a report by Manager Magazin, Autopilot was involved in over 700 accidents with 17 fatalities in the USA alone by mid-2023. The technology has also been criticized in Germany; the Federal Motor Transport Authority (KBA) in Flensburg has already launched investigations into the problem of so-called phantom braking.

In contrast, the electric car manufacturer Tesla from Austin, Texas, regularly refers in its official vehicle safety report to a significantly lower accident rate when driving with Autopilot activated compared to driving without assistance. However, critics criticize the methodology of this data collection and the misleading term "Full Self-Driving", which suggests a lack of autonomy.

The current crash underlines the serious discrepancy between marketing promises and technological reality. It shows that even the latest systems can still fail due to everyday phenomena such as a shadow being cast. Drivers are left with the bitter realization that they cannot rely on the technology, but may not even have the chance to intervene at the crucial moment.

Hello Getquins,

As always, I'm starting my summer a little early with a vacation. This time it's not Asia but surprisingly :-) the USA.

As it's my first vacation in this country (otherwise only on business) I'm taking advantage of other opportunities, not just the company and hotel.

$ROST (+1,21%) The shares of the company are very strong here and were not known to me as a share, the turnover, profit and share price in the past are very lucrative.

My investment $PEP (+0,03%) I hardly see here except for sweets like Lay Chips but $KO (+1,08%) is the leading beverage here.

I have $TSLA (-2,92%) and am surprised at the company empire, the South African is doing (almost) everything right. His company Space X (now also rockets), the Boring Company opposite and batteries under construction for houses, companies and cities are a large portfolio.

They build like mad here, whether streets $CAT (-0,65%)

$DE (+0,86%) or entire residential areas with several hundred houses.

The integration of South Americans has been properly implemented here, you can see them working in construction, with the cleaning crew or as handymen in the trades. Whether this will work in Europe with state support is questionable, but it's a different topic.

Almost 90% of people here have $AAPL (+0,57%) iphone, $F (+2,12%) pickups or $GM (+2,61%) a few European ones can also be seen here $VOW (-0,41%)
$BMW (+0,24%)

The bar culture, restaurants and dinners are very popular.

$BOM

Of course there is a huge $WMT (+1,92%) and next to it the $CVS (+2,64%)

Best regards and hope you had Easter or soon Whitsun vacation.

So long

Smudo

$TSLA (-2,92%) continues to find itself in a downward spiral on the European car market. According to data from JATO Dynamics, the company owned by billionaire and Trump confidant Elon Musk sold fewer cars in April than the Chinese car giant $1211 (-3,89%) . The Chinese brand, which has only been present in Europe for a few years, sold 7,231 new cars and $TSLA (-2,92%) 7.165.

"Although the difference between the monthly sales figures of the two brands may be small, the impact is enormous. This is a turning point for the European car market, especially when you consider that $TSLA (-2,92%) has led the European BEV market for years, while $1211 (-3,89%) only officially started operating outside Norway and the Netherlands at the end of 2022," noted Felipe Munoz, Global Analyst at JATO Dynamics.

$TSLA (-2,92%) reported a further monthly decline in April, with total volumes down 49% year-on-year. $1211 (-3,89%) On the other hand, the market recorded a 359% increase in the same period thanks to its broad and competitive range of fully electric vehicles and plug-in hybrids. Thanks to its rapid expansion $1211 (-3,89%) has already overtaken established European car brands - in the UK the company sold more than Fiat, Dacia and Seat, in France more than Fiat and Seat, in Italy more than Seat and in Spain. This growth comes even before the start of production at the new plant in Hungary.

$TSLA (-2,92%)

The first robotaxis are due to go into operation in Austin Texas in June.

However, as in the past, there are already concerns as to whether the $TSLA (-2,92%) technology is safe.

The decision not to use laser-based systems could turn out to be a big mistake.
