From the comments: "projections [for Germany] for the full year are just 17,000 registrations, down from 70,000 in 2022" https://electrek.co/2025/08/05/tesla-sales-in-europe-are-in-free-fall-and-the-pain-is-just-starting/
Teslaβs sales in Europe declined by about 10% in 2024. They are down 34.3% through the first 7 months of 2025. The overall EV market in Europe is increasing by more than 60% to an estimated 2.65 million units in 2025. Projected Tesla EV share in Europe would thus be between 7% and 10% for the full year.
Tesla unit sales in Finland were down 45% in April (y/y) to 71 cars.
