LOS ANGELES, July 19 (Xinhua) -- Tesla's grip on the electric vehicle (EV) market in California, the most populous U.S. state, appeared to be loosening, with new car registrations plummeting 24 percent year over year in the second quarter, according to the California New Car Dealers Association (CNCDA).
This marks the third consecutive quarter of declining sales for the EV giant in the Golden State, raising concerns about Tesla's future dominance, according to a report released by the organization on Thursday.
