Federal auto safety regulators opened an investigation Tuesday into possible defects in Tesla doors that have reportedly left parents with children trapped in the back seat and forced to break windows to get them out. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration said the preliminary probe is focused on 2021 Tesla Model Ys after receiving nine reports of electronic door handles not working possibly due to low battery voltage. The company run by billionaire Elon Musk has installed manual door releases inside the vehicles but NHTSA noted that a child may not be able to reach or know how to operate the releases. In four cases, the parents had to break the windows to get inside. The investigation into Tesla's most popular model comes after numerous reported incidents in recent years of other problems with opening Tesla doors, sometime trapping drivers in burning vehicles after accidents and a loss of power. In April, a college basketball recruit said he was fighting time trying to

A Miami jury decided that Elon Musk's car company Tesla was partly responsible for a deadly crash in Florida involving its Autopilot driver assist technology and must pay the victims more than USD 200 million in punitive damages. The federal jury held that Tesla bore significant responsibility because its technology failed and that not all the blame can be put on a reckless driver, even one who admitted he was distracted by his cell phone before hitting a young couple out gazing at the stars. The decision comes as Musk seeks to convince Americans his cars are safe enough to drive on their own as he plans to roll out a driverless taxi service in several cities in the coming months. The decision ends a four-year long case remarkable not just in its outcome but that it even made it to trial. Many similar cases against Tesla have been dismissed and, when that didn't happen, settled by the company to avoid the spotlight of a trial. This will open the floodgates, said Miguel Custodio, a

American electric car maker Tesla on Friday said it will launch its first charging station in Mumbai next week. The company, which had announced its much-awaited entry into the Indian market last month, said the first Tesla Charging Station in India will feature four V4 Supercharging Stalls (DC charging) and four Destination charging Stalls (AC charging). The Tesla Supercharging Stalls offer a peak charging speed of 250 kW starting at Rs 24/kW and destination chargers providing 11kW at Rs 14/kW, it said in a statement. "This will be the first of the eight Supercharging sites that were announced during the launch in Mumbai, with more planned across the country, to provide the optimal cross-country experience," the company added. Last month, Tesla launched its Model Y with price starting at Rs 59.89 lakh while opening its first experience centre at the Maker Maxity Commercial Complex, in Bandra Kurla Complex, Mumbai. Tesla said the "Model Y can add up to 267 kilometres of range in j

Billionaire Elon Musk said Tuesday he's committed to being CEO of Tesla in five years' time as the automaker faced intense consumer and stock-price pressure over his work with President Donald Trump's government. The question came as Musk made a video appearance at the Qatar Economic Forum hosted by Bloomberg after Musk recently travelled to Doha as part of Trump's Mideast trip last week. The SpaceX and Starlink chief offered terse sentences and grew combative over questions regarding his businesses and how his involvement in American politics had affected his businesses. A moderator asked: Do you see yourself and are you committed to still being the chief executive of Tesla in five years' time? Musk responded: Yes. The moderator pushed further: No doubt about that at all? Musk added, chuckling: I can't be still here if I'm dead." Tesla has faced intense pressure as Musk worked with Trump as part of its self-described Department of Government Efficiency effort, particularly amid

Tesla has officially launched in Saudi Arabia, marking a new chapter in the company's global expansion after Elon Musk's troubled relationship with the kingdom but the Middle East country's extreme heat could pose a challenge for its electric vehicle performance and battery efficiency. Musk and Saudi Arabia have had a complicated history. Back in 2018, the Tesla CEO claimed he had secured funding from the kingdom's sovereign wealth fund to take the company private. That deal never happened, leading to lingering tensions. With the launch of its first showroom and service centre in Saudi capital Riyadh on Thursday, Tesla makes its long-anticipated entry into the Saudi market. The facility will offer models, including Model 3, Model Y and the Cybertruck, and pop-up stores are also opening in Riyadh, Jeddah, and Dammam. The Riyadh event drew a large and diverse crowd from content creators and car enthusiasts to visitors excited about Tesla's launch. It's a beautiful step we've been .
