New York, January 6, 2026, 10:10 (EST) — Regular session Tesla (TSLA) shares fell 3.2% to $437.13 in morning trade on Tuesday after German road traffic agency KBA said the automaker sold 2,032 cars in Germany in December, down 48% from a year earlier. KBA said Tesla’s 2025 sales in Germany fell 48.4% to 19,390 vehicles; the stock has traded between $437.05 and $452.25 after ending Monday at $451.67.

Tesla stock rises despite Germany, UK sales slump; CES autonomy race and earnings in focus

New York, January 6, 2026, 09:32 EST — Regular session Tesla shares rose about 3.1% to $451.67 in early Tuesday trading, extending a rebound from the prior session even as fresh data showed the electric-vehicle maker’s December sales slid in key European markets. The European prints matter because they sharpen questions around Tesla’s growth and pricing power at a time when investors are debating how much of the stock’s value rests on its non-auto ambitions. A Reuters Breakingviews column said Tesla delivered about 1.6 million vehicles in 2025, down from a 2023 peak, while China’s BYD sold more than 2

Lucid stock pops after Q4 deliveries beat estimates as Gravity SUV demand gets tested

New York, Jan 5, 2026, 17:04 EST — After-hours Lucid Group shares rose 4.7% to $11.69 in after-hours trading on Monday after the luxury electric-vehicle maker posted a fourth-quarter delivery increase and a sharp jump in production. The update matters because U.S. EV demand has cooled since a $7,500 federal tax credit for buyers expired in September, forcing automakers to lean harder on pricing and promotions to move higher-priced models. Lucid has tried to broaden appeal with its lower-priced Gravity Touring SUV, launched in November at $79,900, while sweetening offers on its Air sedans. Still, the company’s factory output expanded

Tesla stock: What to watch after Q4 deliveries miss and BYD takes the EV crown

NEW YORK, Jan 4, 2026, 4:16 PM ET — Market closed Tesla shares closed at $438.07 on Friday, down 2.6%, after the electric-vehicle maker reported a bigger-than-expected drop in fourth-quarter deliveries, a filing showed. The update also underscored that Tesla has ceded the annual EV sales lead to China’s BYD.

Tesla stock heads into Monday under pressure after delivery miss hands EV crown to BYD

NEW YORK, January 4, 2026, 13:09 ET — Market closed Tesla shares head into the new week on the back foot after the company reported a steeper-than-expected slide in fourth-quarter deliveries and ceded the global electric-vehicle sales crown to China’s BYD. Tesla closed down 2.6% at $438.07 on Friday. Reuters The figures land at an awkward moment for Tesla bulls who have leaned on the company’s long-term bets in robotics and self-driving, even as the core car business slows.
