Tesla CEO Elon Musk recently held an unplanned meeting with company employees to provide updates on various product developments and to address concerns that he may be neglecting his responsibilities.

Tesla's stock has been experiencing a decline since the beginning of the year due to declining sales in important markets like Europe, China, and the US. The transition to the new Model Y SUV has impacted sales, and Musk's association with President Trump and right-wing politicians in Europe has led to a negative impact on Tesla's brand. This has resulted in protests and acts of vandalism at Tesla showrooms.

During the meeting, Musk shared updates on Tesla's achievements, such as producing 7 million electric vehicles and the progress of the new Model Y. He acknowledged the backlash against Tesla stemming from his political involvement and leadership roles, referring to incidents of vandalism and protests.

Musk addressed concerns about the negative news surrounding Tesla, stating that the future looks promising, especially with the advancements in autonomous driving technology. He encouraged employees and investors to hold onto their Tesla stock, emphasizing the potential growth opportunities in the future.

Musk reiterated his vision for autonomous Teslas and robotaxis, highlighting the long-term goals of the company. Tesla's plan for a Cybercab robotaxi, set to be in production by 2026, involves innovative production techniques to streamline the manufacturing process.
