A 59-year-old woman in Arlington, Virginia has filed a lawsuit against Tesla seeking damages exceeding $10 million following a serious collision during a test drive of a Model Y on September 21, 2024 [1]. The vehicle crashed into a hair salon and caught fire, leaving the driver with severe injuries [1].
The plaintiff claims that Tesla's sales personnel told her the Model Y operated "the same as a gas-powered car" and failed to adequately explain the characteristics of electric vehicles or the "Insane" high-performance acceleration mode [1]. According to court filings, the accident occurred when she pressed the accelerator pedal after a traffic light turned green, causing the vehicle to accelerate beyond her expectations [1]. The Model Y in "Insane" mode can accelerate from 0 to 60 miles per hour in approximately 3.3 seconds [1].
Tesla has denied responsibility, arguing that the driver failed to exercise reasonable care while operating the vehicle [1]. The litigation remains unresolved pending the court's final determination [1].
