▪Tesla Inc. reached a confidential deal to resolve a lawsuit by the family of a teenager who was killed in a 2019 California crash involving a Model 3 on Autopilot. The jury trial had been expected to start next month in Alameda County, CA.

▪The settlement marks the latest move by the EV maker to avoid a jury trial over a fatal wreck, and comes after the automaker has struck settlements in several other cases that blamed defective technology for deadly accidents.

▪Tesla is challenging a $200 million verdict imposed by a federal jury in Miami, and faces three more trials over fatal Autopilot crashes in the next six months in California.
