After the crash, Tesla sued a local influencer who claimed the accident happened because of a malfunctioning Model Y.
Tesla is not to blame for a fatal crash that involved a Model Y crossover, a Chinese court ruled earlier this week, according to local outlet Shanghai Securities News, quoted by Bloomberg. The crash that happened in November of last year resulted in two deaths and three injuries after a white Model Y abruptly accelerated and drove at a high speed before crashing, as revealed by surveillance footage.
Data recorded by the vehicle reportedly showed that the accelerator pedal was pressed at 100 percent in the five seconds before the crash and that the brakes were not applied. The influencer was ordered to pay Tesla 30,000 yuan for reputational damage and issue a public apology on the same account that alleged the wrongdoing in the first place. The decision comes after the American EV maker won its first U.S. jury trial involving the Autopilot driver assistance system.
