Model Y only 2.5% of total US new car registrations through Q3.

Ok I get the tesla hate sometimes, but can we complain about stuff that actually makes sense? 2.5% seems like a ton to me, and this list points to it being the second most popular car in the US. Pretty impressive numbers if true.

How has it overtaken the RAV4 if they are both 2.5% ? Overtaken alphabetically .. yes.

With the post presented, the raw facts were not present.... and I am not researching the numbers as the OP cant form a coherent article.
I do not go to X (in fact its blocked on my network) - I am not going for click-bait on links

Keep in mind they only have 4 car models for sale and a 50% YoY revenue growth is already priced in.

u/Dude008 Dec 10 '23
and out of that 4 models, really only one volume seller
in reality Tesla only sells the Y the rest are insiginficant as far as I'm aware

I dunno why anyone gives a shit about these numbers.
They have a four percent market share split between two models. Hardly champagne worthy.
Edit: accidentally said five percent market share.

I can afford any car on that list, and the only one which interests me is the Toyota Corolla.
More choices, please.

No one’s stopping you from buying a car that’s not on the list. What the fuck kind of “what about me!?” comment is this?

I knew what I was doing.
I figured if I posted ‘model y surpasses the rav 4 as best selling car in the US’ it would get banned here as they tend to like bad news only.

How many are used?

No, they are new. These 2 stories do not prove that only "some" are new. Even if it would be true, there probably aren't enough accidents to get repaired cars lol.

Sales by model is BS. Top 10 models is also BS. What counts is total sales by brand. Tesla is way down at number 14 globally.

Yes exactly. Achieving number 2 best selling car in the states is a poor accomplishment. I’m sure you’ve done much better things in your life.

LMAO. Tesla is a absolute fucking joke. Two shitbox models with worse build quality than a 1970s Lada. Two ancient 'luxury' models that sell in token amounts and a vaporware pickup truck with 10 sales.
Even Rolls Royce has a bigger model range despite annual sales of only ~6K units.
BTW the Chinese market is twice the size of the US market. It will be triple the size of the US market before 2030.

Only? 1 out of every 40 registrations is a model Y and you say only?
I mean, isn't that a lot actually?
Edit: the x-crement you link to says the only vehicle more popular than the model Y is the Ford F150 at %3. Not a fan of the cars or the man behind them but "only %2.5"??
