Tesla, more so than any car company, seems to be a weathervane when it comes to good news and bad news. In the last 24 hours, the company led by firebrand visionary Elon Musk has been dented by Consumer Reports and Bank of America. Meantime, Consumer Reports punished Tesla this week for its new cars, which lack autonomous emergency braking (AEB), even though its older models do not lack for it. The influential consumer magazine, said it lowered ratings for both the Tesla Model S and Model X because the latest versions of the vehicles still lack the AEB technology. And the Model X also lost two points, driving its status with CR to nearly the bottom of its category.
