Considering the pickup EV has been an enormous commercial flop, only selling barely a fraction of Musk’s promised 250,000 to 500,000 Cybertrucks a year, there’s a good chance Tesla is using the mercurial CEO’s other venture to boost the numbers ahead of the end of an otherwise disastrous year.

He literally already did something like this with tesla and solar city. There was a court case and everything but musk won so it's no suprise he's doing it again.

    60m settlement. Technically a loss, but a slap on the wrist and a drop in the bucket as far as I'm concerned so I won't argue that it wasn't a win.

    I can't believe this fucking court system.

    Once you have enough money winning a court case is indistinguishable from losing one.

    Ahhh I thought he straight up got charges dismissed my bad. But yeah $60 million for elon is a slap on the wrist, or "cost of doing business"
