After taxes, a winner could expect to receive around $180.7 million with the cash option or $361.5 million with annuitized payments.

A Black former elevator operator at Tesla’s Fremont factory, Owen Diaz, has had his payout in a racial bias lawsuit reduced from $15 million to $3.2 million. Tesla has been ordered to pay Diaz $175,000 in damages for emotional distress and $3 million in punitive damages. Diaz first sued Tesla in 2017, claiming the company failed to act when he repeatedly complained to managers about employees frequently calling him racist slurs and drawing swastikas and racist caricatures on walls and work areas.
