I thought it turned profitable a few years back?

Data from the Land Transport Authority showed there were 924 Tesla registered last year. In the first five months of this year, Tesla registered 190 vehicles.

Yes - Should be sacked! Only sold 190 cars this year. Singapore market is too small anyway. China or US probably sold that many in a few hours.

cut cost sacked. right way. our gov also must set example. too manY redundant in the ministry

Why our gov cannot cut minister headcount?

Hire and fire. Why hire in the first place? There's no proper planning.

Yeah. Since 2019, starting to be profitable in a longer trend. Overall I think still a loss as first half is bad. 2020 onwards profitable.

It was profitable earlier for only 2 quarters before 2019. Did not last.

All buy BYD electric cars?
