Sweden: Tesla’s problems grow

Tesla's delivery troubles in Sweden worsened last Thursday, when a court ruled that PostNord did not, for the time being, need to deliver licence plates to the electric carmaker that were being blocked by postal service workers.

Why it matters: Tesla cannot deliver new cars to customers without the plates.

The big picture: Tesla is facing growing pressure in Sweden, Norway, and Denmark from unions backing IF Metall mechanics in Sweden who went on strike on 27 October, demanding a collective agreement with the company. Denmark's largest trade union has joined strike action and is refusing to load Tesla cars at Danish docks.
