Yeah, it's a bit confusing with all those brands. Tesla is just Tesla, but Volkswagen is a company and also a brand, and the company owns the brands Volkswagen, Škoda, Seat, Cupra, Audi, Lamborghini, Bentley and Porsche. But it is owned partly by another company called Porsche as well.

So yes, Tesla sold more cars in Germany than the Volkswagen brand, but fewer than the Volkswagen group.
