Pennsylvania has become the 10th U.S. state where Tesla Motors Inc. may sell its electric cars directly to the public, according to Automotive News.
Only three states California, Washington and New Hampshire and the District of Columbia have no restrictions on direct factory sales.
Other states where Tesla is specifically allowed to sell through at least one store, or whose current sales activities haven't yet been challenged, include Colorado, Florida, Georgia, Illinois, Indiana, Nevada, New York and Virginia, according to AN.
The newspaper says Tesla may display cars but can't legally sell them to consumers in Arizona, Maryland, New Jersey and Texas. The company hasn't established local sales operations in 28 states, and its legal standing in the remaining states is undecided.
