Tesla ships their cars from the US on a schedule, when that schedule doesn’t match up with a certain month, you see a big sales drop, since there are no cars to sell.
You also get a lot of articles when that happens

Here are the year to date sales for Europe:

The Renault Zoe is the best selling BEV in Europe so far this year by quite some margin. The Zoe has outsold all of Tesla's European models combined.
The article is not bs.
It is a model designed for urban use ('citadine' in french), it costs about 24000€. And I'd say it appeals more to the eco-conscious than to the "EV have full torque from zero speed" crowd.
IMHO Tesla is doing the right thing here: begin with low volume from the high-margin high-end side of the overall market (think the iPhone beginning). I'd not be surprised to see a Zoe equivalent once the Tesla factories start having significant production in Europe.
