Tesla lost ground in the U.S. in Q1, but expanded its market share

In the first quarter, Tesla’s U.S. sales fell sharply, but the brand still increased its share of the EV market. The reason is straightforward: electric-car demand grew less than expected, while weakness from several rivals made the comparison easier.

For Italian readers, the key takeaway is that Tesla’s dominance remains strong even in a slowdown. In Europe, though, the picture is less stable: prices, incentives and competition are reshaping the market much faster.
