American actress, businesswoman and activist Eva Longoria has just welcomed a brand new vehicle into her garage: a Tesla Model X.
Wearing a titanium exterior color and riding on black wheels, the zero-emissions SUV has made the 41-year old so happy she wanted to share the experience with her 2.8 million Instagram followers by dropping in a short video, accompanied by a comment:
“Getting the new SUV Tesla! So Excited!!! Auto-Pilot here we come!“
Longoria probably hasn’t heard of the semi-autonomous driving system being investigated by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. The action has been taken after a Tesla Model X was crashed, while having the Autopilot engaged, and landed on its roof, putting the driver and his passenger in hospital with non-life threatening injuries.
Another incident, centered on the same Autopilot system, led to a fatality in Florida a couple of months ago, after a 45-year old man, who was behind the wheel of his Tesla Model S, was pronounced dead at the scene.
