Trump has defended Tesla but the company's sales have fallen AFP Tesla electric car sales in Europe plunged in the first three months of the year, industry data showed Thursday, in a fresh blow to its boss Elon Musk who has been criticised for his work in US President Donald Trump's administration. Sales of the sleek machines fell 45 percent to just over 36,000 units in the first quarter of 2025 in the 27-nation bloc, the European Automobile Manufacturers' Association said in a report. They dropped by 36 percent just in March, suffering in both periods the biggest fall in sales of any of the major car groups tallied in the association's report, despite a growth in electric vehicle sales overall.
