Tesla skepticism continues to grow, robotaxi demo fails to impress Austin
Briefly

Tesla's popularity with American consumers is declining, as evidenced by a recent survey showing only 26 percent of participants maintain a positive view of the company, while 39 percent view it negatively, resulting in a net positive view of -13. The view intensity score reflects an even starker contrast, with a score of -16. The decline is especially pronounced among demographics with incomes under $75,000, among suburban residents, and older individuals over 65. In comparison, Toyota has a higher net-positive score despite limited EV offerings.
Just 26 percent of survey participants still have a somewhat or very positive view of Tesla, while 39 percent hold a somewhat or very negative view, resulting in a net positive view of -13.
The brand that actually popularized the EV has fallen even further into negative territory in July, with Tesla's view intensity score being -16, highlighting a significant gap in strong opinions against the company.
