Bidness Autos - Tesla Fails To Receive Permission To Sell Cars Directly In Connecticut



The automaker's attempt to receive permission for direct sales in Connecticut have been overlooked by the senate.

Tesla Motors has recently received a bad news from the government of Connecticut. Formerly, the automaking giant has applied for a license to receive the permission to make selling transactions within the state directly, without a middle carrier. However, the bill that was expected to pass by the electric car makers, failed to come into action which resulted in the firm not obtaining the authority to sell their smart cars to the customers in the state. According a spokesperson of the auto making firm, this has happened due to the state of passivity that was seen in the senate which was supposed to further pass the request.

Tesla had reportedly filed a bill in the senate house of Connecticut in May but due to the deferral in the decisions made by the government, the results were not only delayed but also happened to be not in the hybrid car making company. However, in more recent news, it was seen that Elon Musk’s auto company is not ready to give up yet and plans to reapply for the bill to be accepted.

The management of the electric automakers has reportedly been making plans to submit the bill again to the general assembly which can then take it into consideration in a session that is scheduled to take place soon. There are, on the other hand, speculations about whether lawyers and lawmakers will think of taking it seriously or not. The firm has also informed that in case the nothing comes out of the special session that is going to take place in the senate, the automakers will file another bill the next year.

The spokesperson of Tesla cars was also noted to say that the firm might even try another strategy to make the law makers agree to the permission they wish to attain. However, it is believed by the firm that no reason can be found which should become a reason for not being granted the bill. The firm has a strong position in the industry and a full right to ask for equal rights to make sales of its cars in the state.

Tesla’s vice president of the business development department was recorded to say that the auto giants are looking towards welcoming new customers to try the smart cars being manufactured by them and by receiving the authority to make direct sales in different states of the country, the process will become easier. Currently, the automakers have around twenty stores all over the country and are planning to expand as much as possible.
