The US auto industry is in big trouble. China now makes 75 percent of all electric vehicles sold anywhere on earth. US automakers make around 5 percent.

    Tesla stores are pretty common in China. They still buy the Tony Stark tech genius businessman schtick.

      Tesla sales have been falling pretty badly in China for a few years now, ever since Chinese companies improved their cars. However, it looks like it had a good couple months at the beginning of 2026. I’d still expect Tesla China to go out of business in a few years.

      For anyone interested:

        I think I saw more Tesla stores than cars.
