Well, Tesla did exactly that, they faked a full autopilot demo:

And they clearly can use a rigged car, cherrypick conditions etc. If it even were live.

Sure but it depends on the location. I guess in China fraud committed by a company with strong party connections (as all companies have) is not illegal. Otherwise half the alibaba sellers would be arrested :) :)

But I generally don't like to throw legal terms around unless it's been proven in court.
