Strictly speaking, they can still sell the cars, they just have to jump through a bunch of loopholes, and not sell them "directly" to the consumer like they want to. The article notes that the same ban has been passed in Texas, and they're still for sale. They just have to do some weird paperwork where you're technically ordering your car from out of state and then they ship it to you, and if you want a test drive you go borrow the car of an existing owner in your area--who I'm sure get kickbacks or some kind of incentive to occasionally let strangers drive them around the neighborhood, but then again, most early-adopters are desperate to show off their new toy and tell people how great it is, so maybe the kickbacks aren't so big after all...
