The task force, a centerpiece of President Trump’s cost-cutting agenda, has drawn fire for sweeping job cuts and allegations of voter data misuse. Musk said the time reprieve will allow him to concentrate on Tesla’s operations, CBS News reported.

Musk’s reduced involvement is unlikely to end the controversy, but it signals a strategic retreat as he grapples with pressing business challenges.

Mounting competition and geopolitical headwinds

Tesla’s troubles extend beyond political controversies. Legacy automakers and deep-pocketed rivals in Europe and China are rolling out competitive EV models. Chinese manufacturer BYD recently unveiled a battery capable of recharging vehicles in minutes—a direct challenge to Tesla’s dominance in its largest overseas market.

Tensions with China have also forced Tesla’s hand: the company halted new orders for its Model S and Model X in mainland China earlier this month amid fears of retaliatory tariffs.
