About half of Americans have a negative view on Tesla and Elon Musk, CNBC survey finds
SHARE

The public sentiment towards Tesla and CEO Elon Musk has taken a sharp turn in recent times, with both facing increasing scrutiny and criticism. Tesla’s stock has experienced a significant sell-off, and a recent CNBC All-America Economic survey has revealed that over 47% of the public hold a negative view of the company. In comparison, only 27% have a positive outlook, while 24% remain neutral. This contrasts with General Motors, where a third of the public view the company positively, with 51% neutral and 10% negative.

One of the key factors contributing to Tesla’s negative perception is Elon Musk’s controversial political affiliations and activities. Musk’s support for President Donald Trump and his involvement in cutting government employment have sparked protests at Tesla offices nationwide. This has led to concerns that these actions may be alienating potential customers and impacting the company’s reputation.

The survey also highlighted Elon Musk as a polarizing figure, with half of the public holding a negative view of him, while 36% view him positively and 16% remain neutral. Among different political affiliations, Democrats have a net approval rating of -82 for Musk, independents at -49, and Republicans at +56.

Interestingly, the survey revealed that many groups who are potential customers for electric vehicles (EVs) have a more positive view of EVs than they do of Tesla. This discrepancy suggests that Tesla may be facing challenges in converting interest in EVs into actual sales. Men, for example, have a net approval rating of +11 for EVs but are evenly divided on Tesla. Similarly, young people aged 18-34 are +19 on EVs but -23 on Tesla. Democrats show a stark contrast with a +20 net approval rating for EVs but -74 for Tesla.

Furthermore, the survey found that Republicans have a strong positive view of Tesla but are net negative on EVs. This polarization among different demographics presents a complex challenge for Tesla in navigating its public image and market perception.

The survey, conducted from April 9 to April 13 with 1,000 participants nationwide, has a margin of error of +/-3.1%. These findings underscore the importance of understanding public sentiment and addressing concerns to maintain a positive brand image and market position.
