Tesla braces for its first trial involving Autopilot fatality


SAN FRANCISCO, Aug 28 (Reuters): Tesla Inc is set to defend itself for the first time at trial against allegations that failure of its Autopilot driver assistant feature led to death, in what will likely be a major test of Chief Executive Elon Musk's assertions about the technology.
Self-driving capability is central to Tesla's financial future, according to Musk, whose own reputation as an engineering leader is being challenged with allegations by plaintiffs in one of two lawsuits.
