Electric vehicle names continued to be dragged down by the ongoing growth sell off this year, as little has changed since the calendar has turned. On Wednesday, shares of Tesla (NASDAQ: TSLA), Lucid Group (NASDAQ: LCID), Rivian (NASDAQ: RIVN), XPeng (NYSE: XPEV), and Li Auto (NASDAQ: LI) were all down considerably during the session.

Tesla and Lucid have been making their own headlines as of late which has definitely added to the current bearish sentiment. First, Tesla raised some controversy over the weekend when it announced it was opening a showroom in the Xinjiang Province of China. The region has been accused of abuses against mostly Muslim ethnic minorities. Meanwhile, Lucid has had some outrage as some of its very expensive Air Dream vehicles have been delivered without features included. These are just software updates so they could be added in the future, but needless to say Lucid is not ingratiating itself well with its first set of customers.
