From TFA:

"German road traffic agency KBA’s website on Wednesday showed the number of newly registered Tesla cars fell 59.5% to 1,277 in January, while the overall German market was down just 2.8% at slightly more than 207,000 vehicles during the month."

Didn't verify it personally, but if you claim something contrary to TFA, a source would be nice.

Comparing different months doesn't mean as much due to seasonal trends. YoY numbers from 1/2024 is aroound 215k. sp a 2.8% YoY decline seems to make sense.

Sales of EVs have fallen much further than sales of all vehicles in general.

Electricity prices.
