There has been a lot of scrutiny on the company and its CEO. Even though their names imply they do, the EV maker's driver assistance systems don't actually make its cars drive themselves.

As part of its defense in a class action lawsuit filed in September,Tesla lawyers have come up with a precarious argument to dismiss the lawsuit, stating that whileTesla may not have achieved its purported goals of engineering completely autonomously driving, that doesn't mean it's fraud.

The automaker's lawyers wrote in a court filing that failure to realize a long-term goal is not fraud.

Anti-Automaker Ammo

Similar to a complaint filed by the California Department of Motor Vehicles, the lawsuit alleges that the company misled the public about its self- driving technology.

Considering the tech's name and the fact that Musk has said in the past that his cars will be able to drive themselves by next year, it's not a lie.

According to CNN, employees involved in the video's production have said that the car kept up badly and needed multiple attempts to drive.

Being Reasonable

It's more or less true that the cars are not self-driving on the website and manual, but it's undermined by the fact that many people don't know that.

According to the attorneys of the Musk-led company, no reasonable consumer would buy a car with the belief that it is fully self-sufficient based on its labels like autopilot and Full-Self Driving.

Is it possible thatTesla just admitted that its fans are crazy? It definitely would explain a lot.
