The class action, filed in the United States District Court for the Western District of Texas, and docketed under 25-cv-xxxxx, is on behalf of a class consisting of all persons and entities other than Defendants that purchased or otherwise acquired Tesla securities between April 19, 2023 and June 22, 2025, both dates inclusive (the "Class Period"), seeking to recover damages caused by Defendants' violations of the federal securities laws and to pursue remedies under Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and Rule 10b-5 promulgated thereunder, against the Company and certain of its top officials.

[Click here for information about joining the class action] Tesla designs, develops, manufactures, leases, and sells electric vehicles and autonomous driving vehicles, as well as energy generation and storage systems, in the United States ("U.S."), China, and internationally. The Company offers certain advanced driver assist systems in its vehicles under its Autopilot and Full Self-Driving (Supervised) options which purportedly "intelligently and accurately complete[] driving maneuvers for you [i.e., the driver], including route navigation, steering, lane changes, parking and more under your active supervision." In April 2022, at an event celebrating the opening of the Company's Gigafactory Texas global headquarters and manufacturing facility, Tesla's Chief Executive Officer Defendant Elon Musk announced that the Company would be building a vehicle dedicated for use as a robotaxi (the "Robotaxi"). Tesla has touted its Robotaxi business as a "ride-hailing network that will eventually operate fully autonomous vehicles" and has stated that "[w]e expect this business will open access to a new customer base even as modes of transportation evolve. We believe our capabilities and advancements in [artificial intelligence], including the deployment of Cortex, our training cluster at Gigafactory Texas, differentiates us from our competitors." The Complaint alleges that, throughout the Class Period, Defendants made materially false and misleading statements regarding the Company's business, operations, and prospects. Specifically, Defendants made false and/or misleading statements and/or failed to disclose that: (i) Tesla overstated the effectiveness of its autonomous driving technology; (ii) there was thus a significant risk that the Company's autonomous driving vehicles, including the Robotaxi, would operate dangerously and/or in violation of traffic laws; (iii) the foregoing increased the likelihood that Tesla would become subject to heightened regulatory scrutiny; (iv) accordingly, Tesla's business and/or financial prospects were overstated; and (v) as a result, the Company's public statements were materially false and misleading at all relevant times. On June 22, 2025, Tesla debuted its Robotaxi service with a highly publicized launch event in Austin, Texas. At the event, approximately 10 autonomous driving Robotaxis with a "safety monitor" in the front passenger seat began picking up invite-only passengers in a geofenced 10-mile by five-mile square of Austin. The next day, Bloomberg published an article entitled "Tesla Robotaxi Videos Show Speeding, Driving Into Wrong Lane," which reported that "Tesla Inc.'s self-driving taxis appeared to violate traffic laws during the company's first day offering paid rides, with one customer capturing footage of a left turn gone wrong and others traveling in cars that exceeded posted speed limits." That same day, in an article entitled "Tesla Robotaxi Incidents Draw Scrutiny From US Safety Agency," Bloomberg reported that the U.S. National Highway Traffic Safety Administration ("NHTSA") had contacted Tesla regarding the foregoing incidents, noting that the NHTSA "is aware of the incidents that were captured in videos posted on social media and is gathering additional information from the company." Further, the Bloomberg article quoted a statement released by the agency that "[f]ollowing an assessment of those reports and other relevant information, NHTSA will take any necessary actions to protect road safety." Then on June 24, 2025, in an article entitled "NHTSA Now Targets Tesla Robotaxi After Autonomous EVs Break Traffic Laws," International Business Times stated, in relevant part, that "the emergence of videos showing concerning behaviour by Tesla's robotaxis may dampen public enthusiasm. The controversy has also triggered fresh criticism and could impact the scheduled rollout later this month." Following these reports, Tesla's stock price fell $21.13 per share over two trading sessions, or 6.05%, to close at $327.55 per share on June 25, 2025. After the end of the Class Period, on August 1, 2025, it was reported that a jury in a trial in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Florida determined that Tesla should be held partly liable for a fatal 2019 Autopilot crash, and must compensate the family of the deceased and an injured survivor a portion of $329 million in damages.
