Tesla Motors Inc., facing a challenge from Georgia dealerships over how it sells cars, said claims made in a petition filed on behalf of auto retailers in the state that it breached its license agreement aren’t valid.
The Georgia Automobile Dealers Association filed a complaint with the state’s revenue department last week, saying Tesla broke rules which stipulate it’s limited to selling fewer than 150 of its electric sedans directly to customers each year.
