Tesla Faces Norwegian Fine over Slow Charging; Stock Jumps 4.4% – Report

5 years 4 months ago

A court in Norway has found Tesla (TSLA) guilty of using a software update to slow the charging speed and reduce the driving range of its electric cars. Tesla stock jumped 4.40% on Monday to close at $606.44.

In 2019, Tesla released a software update for its cars. Soon after, some drivers started noticing a drop in charging speed and a decline in range. Some lost as much as 30 miles in range. The problems mainly were reported by owners of old Model S cars produced between 2013 and 2015.

When the complaints started emerging, Tesla explained that the software update causing the problems was intended to protect the battery and improve its life. It also said that only a handful of cars had been affected.

The affected drivers sued the company in several countries worldwide, including the U.S., Norway, and Denmark. In Norway, Tesla has been asked to pay 136,000 kroner (around $16,000) to each of the affected customers.

As there are more than 10,000 Model S cars likely affected in Norway, the company could have to part with $160 million to compensate the drivers. Tesla is required to pay the fine by May 31 or appeal the decision by June 17. (See Tesla stock analysis on TipRanks)

Wells Fargo analyst Colin Langan initiated Tesla stock coverage with a Hold rating and a price target of $590. Langan’s price target suggests 2.71% downside from the current price.

Langan believes the stock's price accounts for the 12 million deliveries Tesla plans by early next decade. He is concerned, however, that the market will not be able to absorb all the cars that Tesla and other EV manufacturers are planning to deliver.

Consensus among analysts on Wall Street is a Hold based on 10 Buy, 8 Hold, and 7 Sell ratings. The average analyst price target of $645.88 implies 6.50% upside potential to current levels.

TSLA scores a 7 out of 10 on TipRanks’ Smart Score rating system, suggesting the stock’s returns are likely to align with the market's performance.

Tesla Considering Opening a Factory in Russia – Report

5 years 4 months ago

According to a Wall Street Journal report, Tesla (TSLA) is considering setting up a manufacturing plant in Russia. Tesla makes electric cars and has four models on the market.

The company currently has manufacturing sites in the U.S. and China but wants to open production sites in other parts of the world, and Russia is seriously under consideration.

“I think we are close to establishing a Tesla presence in Russia,” said CEO Elon Musk at a Kremlin-sponsored educational event.

There are 700 Tesla cars registered in Russia, representing 6% of the 11,000 electric cars registered in the country as of the beginning of 2021.

Although the Russian electric car market is currently small, it is expanding rapidly. Bolstered by the elimination of import taxes, the number of electric cars registered in the country has increased 71% over the past year, according to Autostat data.

Russia lacks a major homegrown electric car maker. Nissan currently has the lead with about 9,000 units of its Nissan Leaf model registered in the country.

A major obstacle to electric car uptake in Russia is limited charging infrastructure, as there are only about 400 charging stations in the country. In addition to Russia, Tesla is also considering setting up a production site in Kazakhstan. (See Tesla stock analysis on TipRanks)

Morgan Stanley analyst Adam Jonas maintained a Buy rating with a price target of $900 on Tesla stock. Jonas’ price target suggests 54.94% upside potential.

“We believe the pullback provides an emerging opportunity for investors to increase exposure to Tesla,” noted Jonas.

Consensus among analysts on Wall Street is a Hold based on 10 Buy, 7 Hold, and 7 Sell ratings. The average analyst price target of $648.30 implies 11.61% upside potential to current levels.

TSLA scores a 7 out of 10 on TipRanks’ Smart Score rating system, indicating that the stock’s returns are likely to align with the market's performance.
