Viecha highlighted this on social media, noting, “Super high retention rate of Tesla buyers is an underappreciated point. Especially given ~90% of Tesla’s vehicles sold in 2023 were sold to people who never owned a Tesla before.” > Super high retention rate of Tesla buyers is an underappreciated point.

Furthermore, 81% of prospective Tesla buyers are new customers switching from competing EV brands, compared to only 42% of Nissan’s prospective buyers. **Still A Cool Factor**: In February, automotive insights provider S&P Global Mobility identified GM as the auto manufacturer with the highest customer loyalty in the U.S. However, Tesla clinched the overall loyalty award for its Model 3 and Y vehicles’ popularity among current owners. Additionally, Tesla maintained its top position for the third consecutive year in the ranking of the most American-made cars by Cars.com. **But Troubles Remain**: Despite these successes, Tesla has faced challenges since the beginning of the year, with disappointing quarterly deliveries and rumors of scrapping its low-cost car plans, leading analysts to downgrade the stock. **EV Market On Rise**: The BI survey predicts U.S. battery electric vehicle penetration will reach 25% by 2030, indicating significant growth in the EV market.  The survey identifies inadequate charging infrastructure and range anxiety as significant concerns for potential EV buyers. Additionally, almost 80% of potential users remain skeptical of self-driving technology.  _Read Next:_ Top-End Tesla Cybertruck Fetches Over Double Sticker Price At Auction Amid Resale Market Jitters, Quality Concerns _Photo via Shutterstock_ * * * Engineered by Benzinga Neuro, Edited by Ramakrishnan M * * * The GPT-4-based Benzinga Neuro content generation system exploits the extensive Benzinga Ecosystem, including native data, APIs, and more to create comprehensive and timely stories for you.
