The company’s investors fear demand being weak and Tesla facing tough competition from Chinese automobile companies.

Musk had said that Tesla is preparing to launch a low-cost electric car. This electric car will be manufactured in the company’s factory in Texas, USA in the second half of next year. However, along with this he had said that there may be difficulties in increasing its production because it will require modern technology. The EV industry has been struggling with slowing demand for more than a year. If Tesla cuts prices, it will increase pressure on startups in this segment and automobile companies like Ford. Musk believes that if trade restrictions are not imposed on Chinese automobile companies, they can become a threat to global automobile companies. Tesla is facing tough competition from China’s BYD. BYD, funded by famous investor Warren Buffett, became the leading EV selling company in the last quarter, overtaking Tesla on the basis of its low-priced electric cars.
