Is that because they have fewer model numbers? If you look at fleet sales, does that placement still hold? Something like Toyota might have dozens of different similar products, diluting their rank ordering.
Tesla's sales last quarter were the result of the US ending subsidies, so record sales and decreases outside of the US aren't mutually exclusive facts.
I am referring to their dramatic reduction in sales and market share loss in all European markets...and struggling in China...while reporting record deliveries. Fairy tales or creative reporting?
I wonder if it’s still too soon for the CEO of a car company to throw up a Nazi salute on an internationally televised event. Let’s check the sales results. Yep still too soon.
Also pro tip. If you didn’t MEAN to throw up a Nazi salute and you’re sorry for offending people you should immediately (or at all)
1) say that wasn’t intended to be one
2) apologize for offending everyone who isn’t a Nazi
3) Refrain from presenting a collection of Nazi jokes as your sole public defense.
Possibly because unfortunately, about 20% of German voters voted for the AfD in the last federal election, which likes to put some Nazi-sounding stuff on its campaign posters ("Kinder statt Inder," for example).
However, your analysis still kind of stands, as the AfD and even more extreme parties (like "Wahre Alternativ") tend to do better in the worse-off parts of the country like the hollowed-out districts on the eastern border (such as the one my brother-in-law left pretty much the moment his accounting degree hit his hand) where people were not big Tesla buyers, and poorly in affluent, well-educated places like Munich and Freiburg, where the kind of people who had been buying Teslas live (and are now buying just about any other EV).
Model Y was the best selling vehicle in Europe in September

Volkswagen sells more EVs than Tesla in Europe:

Volkswagen's sales are split across many brands (VW, Audi, Skoda, Porsche, Cupra, MAN, Scania, etc.) and models.

Reminder that last quarter Tesla reported record deliveries...basis for an SEC investigation?

That is funny. Of all the things Tesla should be under investigation their sales in Germany won't make top-100 list.

Tesla can say anything as being "commercial puffery".

Turns out Nazis aren't popular in Germany.
EDIT: it's funny that I say this every time, and every time I get downvoted. I have no idea why.

Oh you mean people are downvoting because they disagree that Nazis are unpopular. Never thought that would be it.
