Sales of Tesla electric vehicles in Europe plunged last year after Elon Musk, the automaker’s chief executive, alienated many people with his political views and support for President Trump.
But the company’s sales have been rising recently, and we’re trying to figure out why. I cover the auto industry for The New York Times and would like to hear from people in Europe and elsewhere who have purchased a Tesla recently, or are thinking about buying one. If you considered it but chose not to, I’d like to hear from you, too.
Did your views of Mr. Musk have any bearing on your decision? Did you decide that a Tesla vehicle was the best car for your needs even if you’re no fan of him? Has your opinion of him changed recently, and if so, why? Is it easier for you to buy a Tesla now that he is no longer part of the Trump administration?
I’ll read every response to this questionnaire and contact you if I’m interested in learning more about your story.
We won’t publish any part of your response without following up with you first, verifying your information and hearing back from you. And we won’t share your contact information outside the Times newsroom or use it for any reason other than to get in touch with you.
