Every delivery number, every FSD build, every factory move, every filing. Tesla is the most-covered manufacturer on EVXL — this is the desk that watches them.
Joe Ward started at Tesla as a logistics intern in the UK back in 2010. Fifteen years later, he’s been handed the keys to the entire global sales operation. The timing tells you everything about where Tesla’s automotive business stands right now. Bloomberg reported today that Tesla has tapped Ward, its vice president for Europe,…
Tesla’s Grünheide factory manager just escalated the company’s war with Germany’s most powerful industrial union to a new level. André Thierig, the plant director at Giga Berlin, says an external IG Metall representative was caught secretly recording an internal works council meeting today, and Tesla called the police. Thierig calls police, IG Metall calls it…
General Motors has a pattern now. When the last EV startup executive didn’t work out, the solution is to hire the next one. Claudia Gast, most recently Senior Vice President of Strategy and Business Development at Lucid Motors, will join GM on March 1 as deputy chief financial officer and vice president of strategy, corporate…
California’s clean-truck voucher program just handed Tesla roughly $165 million in reserved funding for a truck that has delivered exactly five units to paying customers. A Los Angeles Times investigation published today exposes how the state’s Hybrid and Zero-Emission Truck and Bus Voucher Incentive Project (HVIP) allocated nearly 1,000 vouchers to subsidize the Tesla Semi…
India has protected its auto market with tariffs ranging from 70% to 110% for decades. Today, New Delhi agreed to slash those barriers for American gas-powered cars and motorcycles.

The final 2025 scorecard is brutal for Tesla. BYD sold 2.26 million battery-electric vehicles last year. Tesla delivered 1.64 million. That’s a 620,000-unit gap that grew every quarter, and it happened while BYD was locked out of the world’s second-largest auto market entirely. The damage extends far beyond the headline numbers. In the countries where…
The Tesla app’s “Share Destination” feature was never designed for medical emergencies. But on November 15, 2025, at 3:50 AM on a dark stretch of I-20 in Georgia, that’s exactly how Jack Brandt’s family used it. His father was behind the wheel of a 2026 Model Y Launch Edition running FSD v14.1.3 when a massive…
FSD builds, factory moves, deliveries, filings — the Tesla desk is the busiest one in the EVXL newsroom.
