Follow Forbes Talks Tesla on Thursday reported quarterly vehicle deliveries that fell below Wall Street's expectations, the latest sign of a disrupted electric vehicle market as Elon Musk's automaker shifts its focus toward robotaxis and humanoid robots. Key Facts Tesla said Thursday it delivered just over 358,000 vehicles in the first quarter, below the automaker's compiled consensus of 365,645 and consensus analyst projections of 381,000, according to FactSet. That marks a 14.3% decline from the December quarter (418,227), but a 6.2% year-over-year growth from Q1 2025 (337,000), when Tesla reported its fewest quarterly vehicle deliveries since 2022. Model 3 and Y vehicles accounted for nearly 342,000 of Tesla's quarterly deliveries, down nearly 19% from the previous quarter (406,585). Shares of Tesla declined 3.4% shortly after trading opened on Thursday. What To Watch For Tesla will report Q1 earnings after market close on April 22, the company said. The automaker is expected to report quarterly revenue of $22.9 billion and $0.41 earnings per share, representing what would be annual growth of 18.6% and nearly 52%, respectively. Key Background Tesla's vehicle delivery reports are often cited as insight into the automaker's sales ahead of its earnings reports. The latest quarterly slide in deliveries follows a broader decline in electric vehicle demand: EVs represented roughly 12% of the U.S. market in September, an all-time high, but that dropped to 6% by January, according to Cox Automotive. Tesla remains the market leader in the U.S., however, even as it faces growing competition from Chinese automaker BYD, which surpassed Tesla as the world's largest EV maker. Musk said in January the company would end production of its flagship Model S and Model X cars, announcing Tesla would use its production line in Fremont, California, to manufacture the company's Optimus humanoid robots. Earlier this week, Musk said orders for the S and X vehicles had “come to an end.” Forbes Valuation Musk is by far the world's richest person, with an estimated net worth of $823.8 billion as of Thursday. He's expected to soon become the world's first trillionaire, after his SpaceX filed confidentially for an IPO on Wednesday, leading the way for what will likely be the largest-ever market debut. Musk, who owns about 43% of SpaceX, would become the first person to be chief executive of two companies valued at $1 trillion after the aerospace firm's listing.

Tesla just confirmed the end of the Model S and Model X — the premium vehicles that built the company's reputation — to bet everything on the CyberCab robotaxi which has no steering wheel, no pedals, and no regulatory approval to operate on public roads. Chinese owners who paid 64,000 yuan for FSD watched hackers unlock it with a $35 Raspberry Pi before Tesla patched it in 48 hours. Robotaxis stopped in traffic in both San Francisco and Wuhan in the same week and both events were safety systems working correctly — not failures — though the media reported them as breakdowns. And the three companies that manufactured NIO, Xpeng, and Li Auto's first vehicles are now bankrupt, pivoting to AI, or betting survival on hydrogen. Obi connects every story to NIO's positioning — Tesla vacating the premium personal EV segment is the exact space NIO has been building in for eleven years.

Tesla recently announced its intention to sunset manufacturing of its Model S and Model X cars, in favor of... robots? On this episode Lisa, Chris, and Derek break down the "why's" behind this decision, and the effects it could have on Tesla's legacy. In our Condensed Soup segment, the team discusses what we're naming our first humanoid robot, and where we're storing them in our homes.

The Trump Phone is real! Ish! The Verge's Dom Preston has seen a T1 on a video call, that we can say for sure. Dom joins the show to explain what's new about the phone, whether it has a chance to be a decent device, and why it's taken so long for Trump Mobile to ship the thing. After that, The Verge's Hayden Field explains the excitement around OpenClaw and Moltbook, and whether either one is a big moment for the AI industry. Finally, The Verge's Andy Hawkins helps us answer a question on the Vergecast Hotline (866-VERGE11) about whether, and when, Tesla might get out of the car business altogether.

Alex recounts his latest cross-country Tesla Full Self-Driving (FSD) attempt and explains why “zero-disengagement” claims often hide major differences in what counts as an intervention—plus an unforgettable moment where the car nearly strands a co-driver at a sub-zero truck stop. Kirsten, Ed & Alex then dig into Tesla's decision to end Model S and Model X production, the company's escalating bet on Optimus humanoid robots, and growing signals of deeper alignment with xAI (and even potential mega-merger vibes with SpaceX). Plus the latest Waymo controversy after a robotaxi struck a child in Santa Monica, the investigations and media narrative battle, and what these incidents mean for public trust in autonomous vehicles.

This marked the lowest temperature recorded in February since 1923. - Iguanas dropping from tress all over the streets - Iguanas can survive temperatures down to the mid-40s Fahrenheit (around 7°C) by entering a "cold-stunned" state, where they appear dead but are just temporarily paralyzed and immobile; however, prolonged exposure to temperatures in the 30s and 40s, especially below freezing, can be lethal, particularly for smaller individuals, leading to tissue damage and organ failure. - They get sluggish below 50°F (10°C) and fall from trees as they lose grip. - The Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission (FWC) issued Executive Order 26-03 on Friday, allowing residents to collect and surrender cold-stunned green iguanas without a permit during an unprecedented cold weather event. Right on Schedule - Remember we talked about how the Nat Gas price was going to reverse, just as quickly as it spikeed? - Nat gas down 25% today - down about 28% from recent high - Still about 50% higher than it was before the spike. THIS! - Nvidia Corp. Chief Executive Officer Jensen Huang said the company's proposed $100 billion investment in OpenAI  was “never a commitment” and that the company would consider any funding rounds “one at a time.” - “It was never a commitment,” Huang told reporters in Taipei on Sunday. “They invited us to invest up to $100 billion and of course, we were, we were very happy and honored that they invited us, but we will invest one step at a time.” Then Oracle announced that it will do a fundraiser in the form of equity and debt - needs to fund more datacenter build-out. - What happened to the OpenAI $300 Billion committment? - Or is the money that NVDA "committed to OpenAi, that they must have committed to Orcle, not a committment - GIGANTIC CIRCLE JERK Fungus - -Interesting - Did you know? Botrytis cinerea, a fungus causing grey mold, affects grapes by causing bunch rot, ruining fruit in high humidity. - While it often destroys crops, specific dry, warm conditions can transform it into "noble rot," concentrating sugars and creating high-value dessert wines (e.g., Sauternes, Tokaji) with honeyed, raisin-like, and apricot flavors. January Economic Review Employment — Job growth was nearly flat in December, with 50,000 new jobs added and earlier months revised lower. — Unemployment dipped slightly to 4.4%, but it's still higher than it was a year ago. — Long-term unemployment didn't change and remains high, and the labor force participation rate slipped to 62.4%. — Average hourly earnings rose 0.3% in December and are up 3.8% over the past year. — Weekly jobless claims stayed close to last year's levels, showing a labor market that is cooling but not weakening sharply. FOMC / Interest Rates — The Federal Reserve kept interest rates unchanged at 3.50%–3.75%. — Most policymakers agreed the economy continues to grow at a solid pace, though job gains are slowing and inflation remains above target. — Two committee members supported a small rate cut, but the majority preferred to wait. - Fed Chair Powell: Clearly, a weakening labor market calls for cutting. A stronger labor market says that rates are in a good place. It isn't anyone's base case right now that the next move will be a rate hike. - The economy has once again surprised us with its strength. Consumer spending numbers overall are good, and it looks like growth overall is on a solid footing. - Upside risks to inflation and downside risks to employment have diminished, but hard to say they are fully in balance. We think our policy is in a good place. - Overall, it's a stronger forecast since the Fed's last meeting. Haven't made any decisions about future meetings, but the economy is growing at a solid pace, the unemployment rate is broadly stable and inflation remains somewhat elevated, so we will be looking to our goal variables and letting the data light the way for us. - Most of the overrun in goods prices is from tariffs. We think tariffs are likely to move through, and be a one-time price increase. - Dissent: Miran and Waller (Miran is a admin shill and Waller wanted job as Fed Chair) GDP & Federal Budget — Economic growth remained strong in Q3 2025, with GDP rising at an annualized 4.4% driven by strong spending, higher exports, and reduced imports due to tariffs. — Investment was mixed, with business spending increasing while housing activity declined. — The federal deficit for December rose to $145 billion, though the fiscal year-to-date deficit is slightly smaller than last year. Inflation & Consumer Spending — Personal income and consumer spending rose moderately in October and November. — Inflation, measured by the PCE index, increased 0.2% in both months and roughly 2.7% year-over-year. — The Consumer Price Index rose 0.3% in December, with shelter, food, and energy all contributing. — Producer prices also increased, though 2025 producer inflation slowed compared to 2024. Housing — Existing home sales rose in December, but the number of homes for sale is still low. — Prices dipped a bit from November but remain higher than they were a year ago. — New-home sales in October were steady compared with the prior month but much higher than last year. — New-home prices fell compared to 2024, though they are still high relative to long-term norms. Manufacturing — Industrial production rose 0.4% in December and was up 2.0% for the year. — Manufacturing output increased, while mining activity declined and utility output jumped. — Durable goods orders grew sharply in November, driven by a big increase in transportation equipment, pointing to strong demand in key industries. Imports & Exports — Import and export prices rose slightly through November 2025. — The goods trade deficit widened in November because exports fell while imports increased. — For the year so far, both exports and imports are running above 2024 levels, though the overall trade deficit remains larger. Consumer Confidence — Consumer confidence fell sharply in January after improving in December. — Both views of current conditions and expectations for the future weakened, with expectations dropping well below the level that often signals recession risk.

This week on Watts in the News, we break down one of the biggest shifts in Tesla's history. Tesla has officially canceled the Model S and Model X, ending new sales as production lines at Fremont are converted to build Optimus humanoid robots. The move signals a major pivot toward AI, robotics, Full Self-Driving (FSD), and Robotaxi, raising big questions about Tesla's long-term direction.We're joined by Tesla legends and YouTubers Bearded Tesla Guy and JoshWest 24/7, who bring firsthand perspective from years of Tesla ownership, long-distance road trips, and a recent FSD drive across the United States. Together, we discuss whether Tesla is moving too fast, whether the company is shifting away from personally owned vehicles, and what this means for future products like Robotaxi, Cybercab, and even the Cybertruck potentially operating autonomously for cargo and logistics.➡️ ⁨Tesla Conversation With  @BeardedTeslaGuy  and  @JoshWest247  : https://youtu.be/XS3rPj-LPI4➡️ Jessie's Trip to Sweden with  @kempower  : https://youtu.be/A-ifvVG_qPc➡️ BowefamilyEV Silverado, Lightning at Gravity at the Tesla V4 Chargers! : https://youtu.be/SHyH59MANtYWe also cover the importance of charging infrastructure at scale. Co-host Jessie shares insights from his upcoming trip to Sweden with Kempower, where he'll see megawatt charging in action, and we discuss why megawatt-level charging is critical for heavy-duty EVs. Plus, we break down Tesla's megawatt charging agreement with Pilot and what it means for the future of electric trucking in North America.From Tesla's vehicle cancellations to Optimus, autonomy, and charging at massive scale — this episode tackles the question: Is Tesla building the future too early, or exactly on time?

In Episode 236, Tu and Lei deliver one of their most wide-ranging and revealing conversations yet—covering Tesla's strategic retreat from cars, China's accelerating dominance in EVs, autonomy, and robotics, and unveiling the inaugural China EVs & More Awards - the EViesThe episode opens with Tesla's bombshell earnings call: the Model S and Model X are effectively retired, revenues decline for a second straight year, yet the stock rallies on promises of robotaxis, robotics, and AI abundance. Tu and Lei explain why Wall Street is betting on a future Tesla that is no longer a car company—and why China's crowded robotaxi and robotics markets make that future far less certain than investors believe.They contrast Tesla's promises with reality on the ground in China, where BYD, NIO, XPeng, Huawei, Geely, and Xiaomi are rapidly upgrading ADAS, launching new models, and redefining value. The discussion highlights how Western media is only now “discovering” vehicles like the Xiaomi SU7 and YU7, despite Chinese OEMs offering Model 3/Y-level features at half the price.The second half of the episode introduces the China EVs & More Awards, recognizing the companies, products, and people that defined the year—while exposing who fell behind. From Zombie Company of the Year to EV of the Year, the awards spark debate around survival, execution, and scale in the world's most competitive auto market.The episode closes with a sober look at automation, delivery, labor displacement, and UBI, asking whether autonomy will ultimately create abundance—or social shock—across global mobility systems.Insightful, provocative, and data-driven, this episode explains why China EV Inc. is no longer the future—it's the present.___

Bring back stereo dolphins! We think there's a market for simplified vehicles that will outlast you with proper maintenance, and we think diesel, non-hybrid, trucks with no built-in infotainment, and manual options would be just the thing. Doug DeMuro disagrees, but do you? It turns out about 1/2 a million Washington drivers have expired tabs. In a surprise to no one living in the area of constantly increasing taxes and costs, more drivers than ever are skipping tab renewals. We often forget the tabs on our motorcycles and trailers, but what about you? Did you hear this episode then suddenly realize your tabs are still from 2021? Living in that RTA zone and it just doesn't make sense to renew them for you? Tesla pulls the plug on the Model S and Model X; is it a sign of decreasing demand for EVs?  Questions for the audience this week!  Is simplicity something you want and would actually pay for? Is there an actual market for vehicles like the 70 series or is it just a nice idea?  What vehicles is close to perfect, except for 1 or 2 glaringly obvious flaws like the Prelude?   What other manufacturers are obviously missing the mark on their models besides the Honda Prelude? Did you "forget" to renew your tabs? Is it just too expensive now?  The Avants Podcast is brought to you by our friends at STEK USA and Carter Seattle!

This week on Autonomy Markets, Grayson Brulte and Walter Piecyk discuss Waymo's LiDAR controversy following an incident in a Santa Monica school zone, the potential of a mega merger between Tesla, SpaceX, and xAI, and Waabi's $750 million capital raise to pivot into robotaxis.The conversation heats up as Walt and Grayson debate the efficacy of LiDAR versus camera-only approaches, questioning if sensor fusion latency contributed to the Waymo incident where a child ran out from behind a vehicle.While Waymo handles the incident in Santa Monica, Tesla is further accelerating their shift to an autonomy/robotics company by shutting down Model S and Model X lines for Optimus Gen 3 humanoids.Looking at the broader market, Grayson and Walt analyze Waabi's strategic expansion from trucking into robotaxis, with Walt drawing parallels to early industry pivots and Grayson questioning the viability of managing two distinct autonomy programs.On the Foreign Autonomy Desk, they highlight Waymo's recent launch party in London, noting the imported vehicles still feature American driving configurations, and discuss Pony.ai's partnership to deploy 3,000 robotaxis in mainland China.Episode Chapters0:00 Waymo Opens SFO Airport Access5:45 Waymo's Santa Monica Incident16:27 Tesla Earnings and New Robotaxi Markets22:04 David Moss' Austin Robotaxi Adventures24:12 Robotaxi's Enhanced Camera Cleaning System26:38 Inspector Uncovers, Walt Warns27:43 The Potential Great Elon Merger30:35 Waabi Raises $750m, Pivots to Robotaxis39:27 Does Uber Reboot ATG?42:55 Plus AI Analyst Day50:01 Foreign Autonomy Desk53:18 Next WeekRecorded on Friday, January 30, 2026--------About The Road to AutonomyThe Road to Autonomy provides market intelligence and strategic advisory services to institutional investors and companies, delivering insights needed to stay ahead of emerging trends in the autonomy economy™.

We've been covering what's happening in Minnesota, and the killing of Alex Pretti, all week on The Verge. To begin this episode, Nilay explains why — and why so many others seem to feel the same way right now. After that, the hosts talk about the CEO-studded screening of Melania Trump's documentary last weekend, the disastrous public appearance from Tim Cook, and whether Cook and other CEOs have any other option but to capitulate to the Trump administration. Then it's time for some gadgets: we talk about the super-foldy, super-expensive Samsung Galaxy  Z Trifold, the Clawdbot / Moltbot phenomenon, and whether Google can finally put Chrome OS and Android together the right way.

Tesla ha cerrado su primer año con una caída de ingresos mientras se carga al Model S y al Model X para poder fabricar robots humanoides. Musk está dejando el negocio que le hizo grande apostando todo a una visión incierta.Loop Infinito, podcast de Xataka, de lunes a viernes a las 7.00 h (hora española peninsular). Presentado por Javier Lacort. Editado por Alberto de la Torre.Contacto:

Tesla Cancels Model S & X. During yesterday's Tesla earnings call, Elon Musk confirmed that Tesla will end new Model S and Model X sales in Q2, shutting down those production lines to convert them for manufacturing up to 1 million Optimus robots. This marks one of the most dramatic pivots in Tesla's history as the company shifts its focus from flagship vehicles to AI, robotics, and Full Self-Driving (FSD).In this episode, we're joined by special guests  @BeardedTeslaGuy  and  @JoshWest247  two longtime Tesla YouTubers with unmatched perspective. Josh famously completed a cross-Canada road trip in a Model S years ago before moving to the U.S., while Bearded Tesla Guy drove a Cybertruck from Florida to the Arctic Circle. Together, they recently completed an FSD road trip across the United States, giving them a front-row seat to Tesla's autonomous future.We break down what this decision really means, why Tesla is prioritizing Optimus, how FSD fits into Elon Musk's long-term vision, and whether this move signals a fundamental shift away from cars—or the next phase of Tesla's dominance.

Carl Quintanilla, Jim Cramer and David Faber engaged in a wide-raging discussion about better-than-expected quarterly results from "Magnificent 7" tech giants Meta Platforms, Tesla and Microsoft. Shares of Meta surged as its plans for AI overshadowed concerns about a boost in capex. Tesla also saw its shares rise: The anchors reacted to the electric vehicle maker's decision to shelve the "Model S" and "Model X" — and shift toward producing robots. Microsoft shares tumbled on slowing cloud growth and a boost in AI spending. Honeywell CEO Vimal Kapur joined the program to discuss earnings, AI and the company's spin-off strategy. Also in focus: IBM and Caterpillar among the earnings winners, gold and silver hit new all-time highs.Squawk on the Street Disclaimer Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

CEO Elon Musk says the move reflects Tesla's shift from automaker to physical AI pioneer.Sales of the S, X, and Cybertruck fell 40% in 2025 to just over 50,000 combined units.Tesla will aim to produce 1 million Optimus robots annually in the long term.Musk also confirmed Tesla's robotaxi service will expand to 7 more U.S. cities this year."It's time to bring the Model S and X programs to an end with an honorable discharge," said Musk.In a milestone moment for the EV market, fully electric cars outsold petrol-only vehicles in the EU for the first time in December, highlighting the region's accelerating shift toward electrification.EVs took 22.6% of the EU market in December, just edging out petrol at 22.5%.Hybrids, including plug-ins, remained dominant with a 44% share.EV sales in Europe, Britain, and the EFTA rose for a sixth straight month.Tesla's EU registrations dropped 20.2%, while Chinese brand BYD jumped 229.7%."We're seeing consumer buy-in to this," said E-Mobility Europe's Chris Heron.Starbucks is seeing its first U.S. sales growth in two years thanks to new CEO Brian Niccol's back-to-basics approach, though investors remain wary due to continued margin pressure.U.S. same-store sales rose 4% in Q1; average order value increased 1%.Niccol's “Back to Starbucks” plan focuses on simplified menus and service speed.Margins fell for a second straight year, down 290 basis points in Q1.High bean costs and past tariffs on imports like Brazilian coffee remain a drag.“I'm most excited that our turnaround plan is coming to life in the way we envision, first turn around the top line, and then earnings growth will follow…”, said Niccol.This episode of the Automotive State of the Union is brought to you by Amazon Autos: Meet customers where they shop: reach high-intent buyers shopping for their next car on the #1 online retailer.Join Paul J Daly and Kyle Mountsier every morning for the Automotive State of the Union podcast as they connect the dots across car dealerships, retail trends, emerging tech like AI, and cultural shifts—bringing clarity, speed, and people-first insight to automotive leaders navigating a rapidly changing industry.Get the Daily Push Back email at https://www.asotu.com/ JOIN the conversation on LinkedIn at: https://www.linkedin.com/company/asotu/

Een bizarre dag op Wall Street. Meta én Microsoft kwamen beide met beter dan verwachtte cijfers. Beide gaan dit jaar (opnieuw) miljarden uitgeven aan AI. Alleen worden de twee totaal anders behandeld. Meta krijgt vleugels op de beurs, terwijl Microsoft een van zijn ergste handelsdagen in jaren heeft.Waarom beleggers Microsoft dumpen (en waarom Mark Zuckerberg bij Meta gewoon geld kan blijven uitgeven) zoeken we deze aflevering uit. Bespreken we ook de resultaten van Tesla. De omzet ging licht achteruit, de winst op insane-modus. Een teruggang van maar liefst 61 procent! Topman Elon Musk blijft gewoon investeren én schrapt twee bekende modellen. Klaar met kwartaalcijfers? De kwartaalcijfers niet met jou, want we hebben het ook nog over ING en SAP. Vooral die laatste springt eruit. Ze hebben de slechtste beursdag sinds het begin van de coronacrisis.Er is ook nog ander nieuws. Zo hoor je bijvoorbeeld wat Jerome Powell en The Wolf of Wall Street met elkaar gemeen hebben en waarom Caterpillar profiteert van alle AI-uitgaven. Te gast: Wilbert Aarts, van Bond Capital Partners BNR Beurs is een journalistiek onafhankelijke productie, mede mogelijk gemaakt door Saxo. Over de makers: Jelle Maasbach is presentator van BNR Beurs en freelance financieel journalist. Zijn favoriete aandeel om over te praten is Disney, maar daar lijkt hij de enige in te zijn. Sinds de eerste uitzending van BNR Beurs is 'ie er bij.Maxim van Mil is presentator van BNR Beurs en journalist bij BNR, waar hij zich focust op de financiële markten en ontwikkelingen in de tech-wereld. Je krijgt hem het meest enthousiast als hij kan praten over ASML, of oer-Hollandse bedrijven zoals Ahold of ABN Amro. Jorik Simonides is presentator van BNR Beurs, economieredacteur en verslaggever bij BNR. Hij wordt er vooral blij van als het een keer níet over AI gaat.Milou Brand is presentator van BNR Beurs, freelance podcastmaker en columnist bij het Financieele Dagblad. Jochem Visser is presentator van BNR Beurs, maakt Beursnerd XL en is redacteur bij BNR Zakendoen en de podcast Onder Curatoren.

We praten je in een kleine 25 minuten bij over alle laatste ontwikkelingen op de handelsvloer. We blijven niet alleen bij de AEX of Wall Street, maar vertellen je ook waar nog meer kansen liggen. En we houden het niet bij de cijfers, maar zoeken ook iedere dag voor je naar duiding van scherpe gasten en experts. Of je nu een ervaren belegger bent of net begint met je eerste stappen op de beurs, de podcast biedt waardevolle inzichten voor je beleggingsstrategie. Door de focus op zowel de korte termijn als de lange termijn, helpt BNR Beurs luisteraars om de ruis van de markt te scheiden van de essentie. Van Musk tot Microsoft en van Ahold tot ASML. Wij vertellen je wat beleggers bezighoudt, wie de markten in beweging zet en wat dat betekent voor jouw beleggingsportefeuille.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

El mercado financiero centra hoy su atención en los resultados de Tesla, publicados anoche tras el cierre de Wall Street, y que marcarán el comportamiento de la acción durante la sesión. En las operaciones posteriores, el valor sube más de un dos por ciento, pese a que las cifras de 2025 muestran un claro deterioro. Por primera vez, la empresa registra una caída anual de ingresos, que se sitúan en 94.800 millones de dólares, unos 3.000 millones menos que el año anterior. El retroceso también se aprecia en el beneficio, que se reduce a la mitad frente a 2024, un dato negativo que contrasta con el sólido cierre del último trimestre. En ese periodo, Tesla logró un beneficio por acción de cincuenta centavos y unos ingresos de 24.900 millones de dólares, superando ampliamente las previsiones del mercado. Sin embargo, su negocio principal, la venta de vehículos, cayó un 10% interanual, reflejando una pérdida de tracción global. La situación es especialmente delicada en Europa, donde la presión de competidores como BYD ha relegado a Tesla a un segundo plano. En el Viejo Continente, las matriculaciones se han desplomado un 37%. Pese a ello, Elon Musk restó importancia a estas cifras ante los analistas, calificando 2025 como un ejercicio de transición. Según explicó, la compañía avanza desde un enfoque de hardware hacia una empresa de inteligencia artificial aplicada al mundo físico. Este planteamiento explica el anuncio del cese de producción de los Model S y Model X a partir de la próxima primavera, sin sustitutos directos, salvo una futura versión del Roadster. Los recursos se destinarán al desarrollo del robot humanoide Optimus y a la flota de robotaxis, cuya fabricación Musk espera iniciar este año, pese a los retos regulatorios. Para financiarlo, Tesla duplicará su gasto de capital en 2026 y destinará 2.000 millones de dólares a xAI, como parte clave de su estrategia de transformación empresarial.

Shoot us a Text.Episode #1107: Today we dive into why used EVs — especially Teslas — are losing value fast, how a Cybertruck hung 6,600 pounds on a patch of glue, and what AI search's rise in impressions but drop in clicks means for auto dealers looking to stay visible.Show Notes with links:Electric vehicles are losing traction in the used market, according to iSeeCars. The latest study shows Tesla models topping the list of biggest price drops as demand cools and federal incentives near expiration.5 of the top 10 used vehicles with the largest price drops in June were EVs.Tesla Model S fell $8,768 (-15.8%), Model X dropped $9,544 (-15.5%), and Model Y slid $4,637 (-13.6%).Used EV prices fell 4.8% year-over-year, while used gas cars rose 5.2%.EV market share growth slowed to just 14.2%, down from 98% last year, even as supply increased.“For shoppers, used EVs offer about $1,200 less in value than a gasoline vehicle – and while you can love or hate how the market prices a vehicle, you can't argue with it,” said iSeeCars analyst Karl Brauer.The Tesla Cybertruck is back in headlines—this time literally hanging suspended by glue in a viral stunt. YouTuber JerryRigEverything put on a dramatic demo shining a light on Tesla's unusual but surprisingly strong repair method.A 6,600-pound Cybertruck was lifted mid-air using just a 2.5-inch patch of Fusor 2098 adhesive attaching it to a crane.That exact glue had been used in repairing the same truck when its tow hitch ripped out during a stress test.Fusor 2098 cures to about 3,190 psi tensile strength, and is OEM‑approved by Tesla and other manufacturers.Adhesive bonding, when paired with rivets, can distribute loads better and outperform welds in some impact scenarios.AI search is changing the game — not just how people ask questions, but how they see your brand. A new VaynerMedia study reveals that while impressions are climbing, actual clicks are falling off fast.AI search already makes up 7.6% of monetizable queries, expected to hit 25% by 2027.ChatGPT queries surged +180% in the past year, while Google's traditional traffic is slipping.“Zero‑click searches” are up, with site traffic down 6.7% year‑over‑year despite higher impression counts.Some takeaways:Move Fast and Test New AI Ad Formats Now: Early adopters of AI‑friendly strategies will capture outsized market share and will learn what works bestStrengthen Your Brand: A trusted, recognizable brand is more likely to be cited in AI answers, even if the click never happens.Optimize for AI discovery by creating content that's easy for LLMs to scan and quote — FAQs, concise answers, and video content.0:00 Intro with Paul J Daly and Kyle Mountsier3:46 Used EV Prices Down 4.8% YoY7:24 Tesla Cybertruck Hung From Glue10:07 AI Search ExpeJoin Paul J Daly and Kyle Mountsier every morning for the Automotive State of the Union podcast as they connect the dots across car dealerships, retail trends, emerging tech like AI, and cultural shifts—bringing clarity, speed, and people-first insight to automotive leaders navigating a rapidly changing industry.Get the Daily Push Back email at https://www.asotu.com/ JOIN the conversation on LinkedIn at: https://www.linkedin.com/company/asotu/
