Tesla's vehicle deliveries fell in 2024, with 1.77 million cars sold, down 2.2% from 2023's 1.81 million. This marks the first time sales declined year-on-year since 2012. The introduction of the Cybertruck didn't boost results significantly, contributing to just 85,133 of total sales. Despite CEO Elon Musk's past ambitions of 50% growth, Tesla has struggled. Subsequent layoffs focused efforts on robotaxi development and scrapped a $25,000 EV plan.

The company is focusing on self-driving technology for future growth, but this has not yet been commercialized. In 2024, Teslaโs deliveries totaled 1.79 million vehicles, slightly below estimates.

Tesla's valuation has surged despite a decline in vehicle deliveries for 2024, highlighting the market's focus on its AI potential rather than traditional car sales. This comes even as the company faces its first annual sales drop amid a wider EV industry slump. Tesla's high stock valuation is partly driven by AI ambitions and Elon Musk's influence. However, analysts express skepticism, emphasizing the need for Tesla to achieve significant milestones in self-driving technology to justify its market value.
