The Zhitong Finance App learned that Tesla (TSLA.US) ended 2025 with a share price increase of over 11% as investors increasingly trust Elon Musk's passionate portrayal of autonomous vehicles. The stock price of the world's highest automaker by market capitalization rose sharply in the second half of 2025, mainly due to Musk's strong promotion of Tesla's progress in artificial intelligence and robotics technology. However, to really impress car consumers is another matter. Musk's high-profile breakthroughs didn't translate into the same level of success in the showroom — although third-quarter deliveries set a record, the company's car sales over the past six months are likely to be lower than the same period a year ago.
