Tesla has reintroduced a contract clause that allows them to sue Cybertruck buyers for reselling the vehicle within the first year of ownership.

The clause requires buyers to offer the Cybertruck back to Tesla at a reduced price before attempting to resell, and Tesla can refuse to buy it back.

Tesla may seek injunctive relief or demand liquidated damages of $50,000 or greater if the provision is breached. [ more ]

Tesla has removed a controversial clause from its purchase agreement that would have allowed the company to sue Cybertruck buyers for reselling the vehicle within the first year of purchase.

The previous agreement included provisions for injunctive relief and liquidated damages if buyers violated the resale provision, as well as a potential ban from buying future Tesla vehicles.

Other car companies have used similar clauses in the past to prevent reselling of rare or expensive cars, but the Cybertruck is intended to be a mass-produced vehicle. [ more ]

Tesla had a clause in its terms of service that allowed them to sue customers for $50,000 or more if they resold their Cybertruck within the first year without permission.

The clause was deleted from Tesla's terms after it gained attention from news reports.

It is unclear if Tesla will bring back the clause in a modified form. [ more ]
