The boss of a big car company, Stellantis, says that if other car companies lower their prices too much, it will be very bad for them. He said this after another car company, Tesla, made its most popular SUV cheaper in China and Europe. The boss thinks there will be a lot of problems if everyone keeps cutting prices.

- The title is misleading and sensationalized. It implies that Stellantis CEO directly warned Tesla about the consequences of its price cut, which is not what he said. He cautioned against cost reductions in general, without mentioning any specific company or competitor.
- The article uses vague and subjective terms like "brutally", "collapsed", "strong competition" to create a negative impression of Tesla's situation, without providing any factual evidence or data to support it.
- The article compares Tesla unfavorably to BYD, a Chinese EV maker that has lower profitability and market share than Tesla, and ignores other factors that may affect its performance, such as government subsidies, regulatory environment, etc.
- The article implies that Tesla is facing a "bloodbath" due to price cuts, but does not consider the possible benefits of lower prices, such as increased demand, market share, customer loyalty, etc. It also does not acknowledge that other automakers are also cutting prices on their EVs, and that this may be a result of industry dynamics rather than Tesla's strategy.
