Bosses announced that it would sell a further 10,000 of its highly-touted EVs, bringing the total number of sales planned for 2024 to 30,000. CEO Gil West, who took the role this month after his predecessor's resignation, admitted that the firm's performance was "weighed" down by the cost of operating and maintaining the fleet.The firm also struggled with the higher average repair costs for electric models compared to traditional motors when crashes do occur.
