Tesla starts 'first builds' of affordable model, posts steepest drop in quarterly revenue in over a decade
24 July 2025 01:42 (REUTERS)Tesla started making the "first builds" of its affordable model in June, the electric vehicle maker said on Wednesday, adding that it expects volume production in the second half of this affordable model is expected to help rekindle falling sales of its aging lineup as Tesla battles rising competition from cheaper EVs, especially in China, and a persistent backlash against CEO Elon Musk's far-right political views. Tesla did not provide an update on its full-year deliveries forecast on Wednesday after pulling its guidance in April, citing broader economic concerns amid tariffs on auto and auto part imports announced by President Donald company reported the steepest decline in quarterly revenue in more than a decade, with a 12% fall, and profit missed Wall Street targets, with the adjusted profit per share of 40 cents lagging the consensus of 43 cents per share, according to data compiled by LSEG."Tesla's disappointing results aren't surprising given the rocky road it's traveled recently. But the company maintains a strong foundation in the key growth sectors of energy storage, robotics, and AI-powered transportation," said Emarketer analyst Jacob Bourne. "The question is whether leadership can execute on this integrated vision in this fast-moving market."Tesla shares were little changed in extended trading after closing the regular session at $ fell to $22.5 billion for the April-June quarter from $25.50 billion a year earlier. Analysts on average were expecting revenue of $22.74 billion, according to data compiled by second straight quarterly revenue drop comes despite rolling out a much-awaited refreshed version of its best-selling Model Y SUV that investors had hoped would help revive demand. Also hurting revenue was a 51% drop in sales of automotive regulatory credits, which other automakers who have difficulty complying with government emissions rules buy from Tesla. The automotive gross margin, which excludes regulatory credits, was 14.96%, beating Wall Street targets. Tesla had said in April it would start producing the more affordable model by the end of the first half and sources had told Reuters the vehicle, a stripped-down version of its Model Y SUV, would be delayed by at least months. Tesla on Wednesday did not disclose any details on the model or how many units it had made. The company said it continued to expect volume production of its custom-built robotaxi - called the Cybercab - and Semi truck in 2026.

Watch as Love Island boy ‘slyly' tries to rekindle romance with ex but is shut down in awkward moment
LOVE Island's player Harry appeared to have his head turned AGAIN tonight as he pulled Shakira for a chat. Harry tried to make amends following the Couple of Sorts game, and the comment he made suggesting she was still interested in him. 3 3 He told her: 'I'm not trying to come between anything you're doing. "I think if you did like me, you'd go after it… you're a smart girl and you'd do what you want.' 'I think the world of you,' he continued. 'I just wanted to apologise to you and I am sorry.' Shakira replied: 'What was said in the kitchen was so misconstrued… "For you guys to bring it up in a challenge is stupid and I don't know why you did it to be honest. "I thought it was uncalled for but I appreciate your apology.' But Harry then went digging to find out if Shakira had regrets about them splitting. A curious Harry asked: 'Do you think it would have been a better experience for you if we were to stay together?' Shakira shut him down and replied: "No, I think you would have just continued hurting me." Harry shockingly replied: "But I think it would have been a better experience." Shakira added: "I mean we had a good time." ITV2 viewers were shocked at Harry appearing to try and rekindle his romance with Shakira, as viewers praised Shakira for "friend-zoning" him. One wrote: "It's bad that Harry keeps blatantly hinting at Shakira he wants to be with her, but the villa are making it seem like it's Shakira who is acting like that." A second said: "You know what lives rent free in my head, Harry manipulates every girl - my man was really telling Shakira he missed her and thought the experience would be better with her…. He chose Helena, mugged her off w his ex and fired some shots with Angel. Delulu." A third commented: "That was deffo a friendzone high five for Harry, well done Shakira babes." "I'm glad Shakira didn't play that game Harry tried to draw her into. No, it wouldn't be better if they were still together," a fourth shared. This viewer said: "Catch Harry trying to manipulate that conversation so he could go back to the boys and say 'yeah Shakira still wants me' Have a day off man and leave our girl alone!" This person posted: "So glad Shakira pied off Harry man really trying to keep every door in that villa open." Someone else wrote: "Did Harry really just say if him and Shakira had stayed coupled up they would've had a better boys have lost their minds." Another added: "Harry is so sly, he tried to see if Shakira wanted him. He's clearly bored of Helena already." Harry's apology came after Harrison told the Islanders in the Couple of Sort that Shakira liked Harry more than Conor. Following the game, Conor had a chat with fellow villa lads Harrison, Harry and Dejon. Shakira later told him that her words had been "twisted" and that what Conor had been told by the other boys was "b******s". Conor argued: "They're saying it when they have nothing to gain from it." However, Shakira shot back: "Of course they have things to gain from it. The biggest f*****g game players about. £25 f*****g k." Shakira was previously coupled up with footballer Harry, 30, during their time in the ITV2 show. She met bombshell Ty Isherwood, 23, during Casa Amor and subsequently coupled up with him. 3

Twist in wild rumours that Tammy Hembrow and her ex-fiancé Reece Hawkins could get back together after her split from husband Matt Zukowski
Tammy Hembrow recently sparked rumours that she could be getting back together with her ex-fiancé Reece Hawkins. And now eagle-eyed fans have chimed in after Reece's ex-wife London Goheen appeared to throw her hat in the ring. The American model shared a photo on Instagram Stories on Sunday that showed her riding a bike alongside a man some fans believe to be Reece. Tammy and Reece recently reconnected over a sweet phone call, leading to chatter that the pair could be destined to rekindle their romance. 'I swear London is trying to convince people that she's with Reece again in this photo after Tammy recently pranked Reece and they had a flirty moment,' suggested one fan page on Instagram. From A-list scandals and red carpet mishaps to exclusive pictures and viral moments, subscribe to the DailyMail's new showbiz newsletter to stay in the loop. Several people agreed, with one fan commenting: 'Tammy and Reece might as well settle the dust and get back together. 'The fact that they are on such comfy terms is really something - in that TikTok it felt like no time had passed between them at all.' Another said: 'I swear to God, if Tammy and Reece get back together and settle for kids… then what was the whole point of their rollercoaster lives?! 'But to be fair I would still want that for them. Don't know why.' Others were not sure that it was in fact Reece in London's photo, with one writing: 'That didn't look like Reece at all because of his bare legs. 'She's uploaded this guy before in Miami, accidentally, a while back.' Tammy first inspired talk of a reconciliation with Reece after she played a cheeky prank on him amid her split with husband Matt Zukowski. Recce and Tammy, who share two children – Wolf, 8, and Saskia, 6 – ended their engagement in June 2018. Tammy took to social media this week to indulge in a spot of phone pranking, which is currently going viral on TikTok. She shared a clip with her 2.2 million TikTok followers that showed her calling up Reece unannounced to say 'goodnight'. The clip began with a voice off-camera egging Tammy on with: 'Oh my gosh, call Reece. Do it.' Laughing at the prospect of surprising her ex with an unsolicited call, Tammy giggled before dialling the number. 'Hey, I'm just calling to say goodnight,' Tammy said down the line to a confused Reece. 'What do you mean?' Reece replied before Tammy answered: 'Can't I just say goodnight to you? What do you mean? 'I'm the mother of your children. I can't say goodnight? A friendly goodnight?' Struggling to get his head around the call, Reece asked again why Tammy was calling, and she replied: 'Goodnight, see you later.' Neglecting to reciprocate the sentiment, Reece ended the phone call with an abrupt: 'Yeah all right, loser,' which elicited a hearty laugh from Tammy. Tammy's cheeky post sent her fans into overdrive, with many pleading with the influencer to get back together with her ex. 'They broke up years ago and I'm still in denial. Tammy and Reece, come home,' one fan wrote. Another pined: 'I can't be the only one that is praying for this reconciliation,' while a third offered a hopeful: 'Please let this be the start of the reunion we have all been waiting for.' It didn't end there, either, with one fan admitting they would 'never get over' the former lovebirds reuniting. 'I can't handle this if they don't get back together,' they wrote, while another fan replied: 'Still in denial. If you guys got back together it would break the internet.' It comes after Matt announced the couple's separation in a sombre Instagram post last month, telling fans the decision was not taken lightly. 'It's with a heavy heart I share that Tammy and I have decided to separate,' Matt began. 'Both of us have struggled with making this decision, however we need to do what is right for ourselves and her three children. 'This wasn't a decision we took lightly. Our time together will always be cherished and never forgotten,' he added, before thanking fans for their support and asking for privacy. Despite their short-lived marriage, both parties have asked for privacy as they adjust to life post-breakup. 'We appreciate everyone's support and space at this time as we navigate the split,' Matt concluded in his emotional post. Tammy later addressed the split in an emotional TikTok video, telling fans she would be getting a divorce. 'I don't want to get into the details, and I want to be sensitive to everyone involved,' she told fans. 'Obviously, when you marry someone, you do it thinking that it is going to be forever, and I blame no one but myself,' Tammy continued while breaking down in tears. 'I've made not the best choices when it comes to relationships. I'm good at putting on rose-coloured glasses. 'Obviously, the worst part for me is that I have kids. I don't care about me – I know I will be okay – but I feel awful.' After splitting with Tammy back in 2018, Reece moved on with American model London Goheen, whom he married in 2020. The couple welcomed a son, Stone, in 2021, before calling it quits a year later.

Jobe scored on his first start for Borussia Dortmund against Mamelodi Sundowns. Asked if the goal had been playing on his mind, Bellingham told DAZN: 'A little bit I've got to be honest. Everyone's been caning me yesterday saying he's better than me. 'So I had to do something today. We're 1-1 now and we'll see for the rest of the tournament.' WATCH EVERY MATCH OF THE CLUB WORLD CUP 2025 LIVE ON DAZN Jobe has hit the ground running following his £25million switch to Dortmund. And in his announcement video after putting pen to paper, the midfielder played down the idea he is following in Bellingham's footsteps by signing for Dortmund. To emphasise that point he is wearing his first name 'Jobe' on the back of his shirt to avoid the weight of his well-known surname. Meanwhile Bellingham has been tipped to rekindle his best form following the appointment of Xabi Alonso. BEST FREE BETS AND BETTING SIGN UP OFFERS Sanchez del Amo told SunSport: 'I really saw a change in Bellingham in his second season. 'In the first season he was outstanding, playing in his natural position as a midfielder with a free role to move through the central corridor. Jobe Bellingham on target as Dortmund beat Sundowns 'But last season, he played many times as a left midfielder. 'He had a different tactical role and he wasn't happy there. 'Real had lost Toni Kroos and didn't replace his role in the build-up play. They struggled for balance between defence and attack. 'Bellingham realised that and tried to help the team by dropping his position, but this was also uncomfortable for him. 'You could see that his body language on the pitch was very different. 'In the first season he always showed a great fighting spirit, helping his team-mates, supporting everyone and leading on the pitch. 'But in this second season he had different behaviour. He spent a lot of time complaining, got more cards and picked fights with opponents. 'I felt he was not happy in his new role — and that showed.'
