Elon Musk, co-founder , Chairman and chief executive officer of Tesla Motors Inc
At the launch event of Tesla's latest electric vehicle, the Model S Plaid, company chief Mr. Elon Musk shared new data which highlighted Tesla's vehicle safety. During his presentation announcing the Plaid, Mr. Musk revealed that while the new vehicle is yet to receive a safety rating from the United States government, Tesla's internal tests have led the company to believe that the Model S Plaid can achieve the lowest probability of injury for any vehicle tested since 2011. Tesla made similar claims for the Model 3 in 2019, following which the National Highway Transportation Safety Administration (NHTSA) issued it a cease-and-desist order, as it worried that Tesla was gaining an unfair marketing advantage with the claims.
