The more I discover about the legal case against Top Gear that has been brought by Tesla the more I suspect that their goal is probably more about tapping into the 350 million people who watch Top Gear than anything else.
The fact Tesla are only looking for a notional 100,000 pounds in damages and have created content on their website specific to the case www teslamotors.com/teslavstopgear makes me suspicious.
Andy Wilman the executive producer of Top Gear posted a strong rebuttal in his blog that makes the law suit look frivolous….which is probably what it is.
