That language is now not current on the web page as of Tuesday. However, it’s nonetheless accessible through the Internet Archive.
Tesla’s guidelines mentioned Cybertruck patrons couldn’t even try to promote their automobile throughout 12 months one, until they acquired approval straight from Tesla to achieve this — and gave the corporate the prospect to purchase it again first.
The order settlement additionally said, “Tesla may seek injunctive relief to prevent the transfer of title of the Vehicle or demand liquidated damages from you in the amount of $50,000 or the value received as consideration for the sale or transfer, whichever is greater. Tesla may also refuse to sell you any future vehicles.”
