In a recent statement, Tesla CEO Elon Musk voiced his frustration and disbelief over the increasing levels of hostility toward Tesla and its  vehicles. Taking to social media, Musk addressed the surge in vandalism and negative sentiment, stating, ‘I’ve never done anything harmful,’ as he expressed his concerns over what he perceives as an unfair backlash.

Musk’s comments come amid growing reports of Tesla vehicles being deliberately targeted in acts of vandalism, ranging from keying and tire slashing to more severe incidents of damage. Videos circulating on social media have shown individuals defacing or attempting to sabotage Tesla  cars, particularly in urban areas where debates over electric vehicles and their impact on the automotive industry remain heated.

“I’m honestly shocked at the level of hate directed at Tesla,” Musk wrote. “People are keying cars, smashing windows, and even attacking charging stations. We’re just trying to accelerate sustainable energy and innovation. I’ve never done anything harmful to deserve this kind of treatment.”

While Tesla has long been a polarizing brand, recent controversies—including layoffs, price fluctuations, and Musk’s outspoken opinions on social and political issues—have fueled strong reactions from both critics and supporters. Some speculate that frustration from traditional automotive workers, skepticism toward electric vehicles, and ideological opposition to Musk himself have contributed to the hostility.

Industry experts note that Tesla’s presence in the EV market, coupled with Musk’s larger-than-life persona, has made the company a target for both admiration and resentment. “Tesla revolutionized the auto industry, but with that disruption comes pushback,” said automotive analyst Mark Reynolds. “What we’re seeing is a mix of anti-EV sentiment, corporate rivalry, and resentment toward Musk’s personal influence.”
