한어Русский языкEnglishFrançaisIndonesianSanskrit日本語DeutschPortuguêsΕλληνικάespañolItalianoSuomalainenLatina

data shows that while tesla has been working hard to rebuild the team, including rehiring some previously laid-off employees, the number of newly opened supercharger ports fell 28% from the same period last year between may and august, which means that tesla has encountered obstacles in expanding its supercharger station network, which is crucial to its competitiveness in the electric vehicle market.

challenges and opportunities

the challenges facing tesla are mainly concentrated in two aspects: technological breakthroughs and difficulties in market promotion. on the one hand, supercharger stations need to overcome software problems, especially delays in plug-in adapters. on the other hand, tesla needs to open supercharger stations to more drivers, which puts tremendous pressure on the transformation of its business model.

ford, rivian and other car companies have joined the competition

at the same time, other automakers such as ford motor and rivian automotive have also begun to use tesla's charging technology, allowing electric car users who are not tesla owners to use tesla's charging piles. this has forced tesla to face challenges from competitors, and they need to make adjustments in technology and marketing.

opportunities in the “next 12 to 24 months”despite the many challenges, tesla still has great potential and opportunities. first, they have received millions of dollars in government funding to install new charging stations in maryland, arizona and other places, which will further expand the supercharger network to cover more areas. second, tesla is committed to technological innovation and continuously optimizes charging technology and software systems to provide users with a more convenient and efficient charging experience.

ultimately, whether tesla can overcome its challenges and achieve its goals will depend on its actions and decisions over the next 12 to 24 months.
