Nothing to do with Musk, but everything to do with cheaper and actually good Chinese EVs flooding the market.

It’s probably both but yeah the Chinese makes have made a huge dent. More importantly they’ve brought EVs to more families.

It’s not both. If people bought cars based on political opinions of the companies owners then Tesla sales would be increasing over that timeframe here.
