Elon Musk’s Tesla ordered to pay over $240 million for Autopilot crash case; company says ‘This was never about…’

A US court has found Tesla partially liable for a fatal 2019 Autopilot crash, ordering the EV maker to pay a portion of the $329 million in damages. The jury held Tesla responsible for 33% of the crash’s fault. Tesla intends to appeal the decision, arguing the driver was solely at fault due to speeding and inattention.
