Tesla gross sales have dropped in some markets this yr, dropped much more in different markets, and risen in just a few. At instances, the UK has been one among Tesla’s brilliant spots. Nonetheless, the development recently has been downward once more, and the corporate had a very unhealthy November.

In line with non-official knowledge from New AutoMotive, Tesla’s gross sales dropped 19% in November within the UK in comparison with November 2024. They dropped from 4,680 gross sales to three,784 gross sales.

BYD gross sales, in the meantime, greater than tripled within the UK yr over yr in November.

Tesla remains to be main EV gross sales within the UK, but it surely’s down from 11.9% of the market in November 2024 to 9.4% in November 2025. BYD went from 2.4% of the UK EV market to 7.8%. Might BYD move Tesla in 2026 within the UK? That would appear absurd a yr or two in the past, however primarily based on current developments, that appears extremely potential … if unlikely!

Ford, by the way in which, jumped from 5.3% share to 7.8% share in November. Might now we have an EV gross sales race between Ford, BYD, and Tesla within the UK quickly? Extra on that in a coming UK EV gross sales report I’m certain.

Wanting a bit additional again, Tesla had 3.2% share of the UK EV market in October 2024 and 1.4% share in October 2025, and it had 13.5% share of the UK EV market in September 2024 and 10.9% share in September 2025. (Do not forget that Tesla usually delivers much more vehicles on the finish of 1 / 4 than at first.)

Let’s see what occurs in December, after which in 2026.
