Troy Jones, Tesla’s Vice President of Sales, Service, and Delivery for North America According to sources, Troy Jones, Tesla’s Vice President of Sales, Service, and Delivery for North America, has left the company after 15 years of service. His departure marks the latest in a series of high-level executive exits as Tesla navigates slowing demand, growing competition, and increasing scrutiny of its leadership structure. Jones’s exit follows the June departures of Omead Afshar, who briefly led Tesla’s sales and manufacturing across North America and Europe, and Jenna Ferrua, Tesla’s North American HR director. Earlier in the year, Milan Kovac, a vice president of engineering overseeing Tesla’s Optimus humanoid robot, also left. These moves underscore the broader instability within Tesla’s leadership at a time when its sales volumes and margins are under pressure. Tesla has responded to market challenges with a stream of product updates and pricing changes. In recent months, the automaker introduced a refreshed Model Y, a lower-cost Cybertruck variant, and updated versions of the Model S and Model X. Despite these efforts, the automaker faces heightened competition in the EV space and concerns about its image tied to CEO Elon Musk’s increasing political activity. To counter market anxiety, Tesla has continued to emphasize its long-term strategy focused on autonomous driving and robotics. On June 22, the company launched a limited rollout of its robotaxi service in Austin using autonomous Model Ys and a new ride-hailing app, with select users participating in early tests.
