<p>Tesla Inc. has urged the Trump administration's EPA not to repeal the 2009 Endangerment Finding, warning that such a move would disrupt the automotive industry and threaten U.S. leadership. The repeal could lead to a loss of $2.8 billion in revenue for Tesla, as relaxed emissions standards would eliminate the need for automakers to purchase ZEV credits. Rivian Automotive also reported a $100 million revenue loss due to these changes. Tesla's performance metrics remain strong despite these challenges.</p>
