Tesla to Open-Source Discontinued Models; NHTSA Probes FSD, $234 million Payout

Tesla plans to open-source the design and software of its discontinued Model S and Model X, as the Fremont production lines are dismantled for Optimus robot manufacturing. Meanwhile, the U. S. National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) has opened an engineering analysis (EA26002) into Tesla's Full Self-Driving (FSD) system, issuing 24 interrogatories due by August 12. Failure to respond could result in daily fines of $27,874, up to $139 million. A U. court has ordered Tesla to pay $234 million for FSD-related fatal accidents, with appeals denied. The investigation focuses on FSD's degraded detection performance in low visibility conditions, with nine confirmed accidents linked to sudden visibility loss.
