This is a good example of Tesla’s active safety feature. Tesla driver didn’t see a jaywalker due to lighting until getting real close, leaving him no time to respond. Fortunately, Tesla safety system detected & then intervened by driving around to avoid hitting the pedestrian.

🇨🇳 Tesla owner had a scary near miss moment when a kid was ruining towards the middle of the street from the front of a parked vehicle. AP was not e engaged but Tesla’ s active safety feature pulled the vehicle to the right a bit to avoid hitting the kid. Owner said he was in panic mode & didn’t steer away. The Tesla was traveling at 50 km/h & there was little time & distance for AEB to kick in. If it did, it would be a fatal accident.

Owner claims his Xiaomi EV drives itself away and the whole thing is caught on surveillance cameras. Xiaomi customer support rep says the owner “accidentally touched his phone”, which is refuted by the owner. Never heard a smart vehicle capable of driving itself away without owner input.

This is the 1st 🇨🇳 Tesla owner I’ve ever seen who openly admits she hit a truck because she mistakenly stepped on accelerator instead of brake, damaging the crumble zone. Reporters approached her & suggested it was a brake failure. She rejected the claim. Her accident went viral on Toutiao, a popular social media platform.

XPeng X9 comes equipped with two lidars. It hit a trailer while NGP was activated. LiDAR is a fool’s errand. Elon Musk is right about it.

The following dashcam footage recently went viral in China. It shows Huawei’s most luxurious vehicle, the Zunjie S800, operating with its ADS 4.0 intelligent driving system engaged, veering out of its lane and striking a sanitation worker, who was injured in the incident. ADS disengaged at the last moment, after which AEB activated, but the remaining stopping distance was too short to prevent the collision. Huawei’s ADS is often promoted as the best intelligent driving system in China. The Zunjie S800 comes standard with ADS 4.0, featuring an extensive sensor suite that includes 4 LiDARs, 5 radars, 12 cameras, and 12 ultrasonic sensors. The vehicle’s sticker price goes up to approximately $140k.

Today I came to Tesla Diner again. Surprisingly there’re still a lot of people inside and outside. I thought the hype would be gone 3 weeks after opening. Obviously that’s not the case yet. Tesla Diner now has people queue in the parking lot instead of lining up around the building. My favorite item fried chicken & waffle is no longer available on the menu. Hope they will bring it back because it’s so popular.

Auto Home, a reputable Chinese automotive publication, successfully completed the moose test for Model YL (loaded with 6 occupants including tester) at the highway speed of 116 km/h. This is the highest recorded moose test result of any vehicle. For context, the last top moose test performer is Porsche 718 Cayman GT4 RS Manthey at the speed of 90 km/h. Congrats to Tesla for setting the record.

Chinese influencer Li Chi flew from China to California for the sole purpose of experiencing Tesla FSD firsthand. Here are his impressions: “Flew 25,000 km — half the globe — just to personally experience Tesla’s smart driving and compare it with Huawei’s smart driving. I’ll skip the detailed process and go straight to the conclusion: Under normal weather and road conditions, Tesla’s vision-based routing is first-class. (I didn’t get a chance to test in foggy conditions.) In certain scenarios, Tesla outperforms Huawei. For example, when activating smart driving, Tesla can reverse to avoid a vehicle parked on the left, then go around it and rejoin the road ahead — quite impressive. Route selection capability is also top-tier. It doesn’t just follow conventional routes but can take shortcuts through residential roads. Acceleration is crisp and decisive, without hesitation… In short, Tesla FSD is improving very quickly. Physically removing the steering wheel would already present no real obstacles. I hope China will soon allow Tesla FSD to operate domestically, enabling earlier adoption of L3 and encouraging competition with local manufacturers.”

In this 2015 interview, the host — a Tsinghua University professor — expressed genuine curiosity about how Elon Musk was able to found SpaceX without prior experience and knowledge in aerospace, especially given that rocket science is one of the most demanding hard sciences — and that Musk was serving as both CEO and CTO. Musk explained that deep expertise can be built outside formal academic programs — by reading extensively, conducting experiments, and speaking directly with experts in the field.

Judge Kathleen McCormick is the perfect example of our legal system rotting from within as she was seen publicly rooting for and supporting the plaintiff against Elon Musk on social media. Where is the impartiality expected of the bench? Such conduct undermines public trust and she needs to be removed for that reason.

People came after us had to wait for seats to be available. This is my 5th time to be here. My favorite is still Fried Chicken and Waffle Sandwich.

This video recently went viral in China. This blogger was skeptical of all those EVs achieving extremely low drag coefficients including a few “record-breaking” numbers. He wanted to see if his Huawei-branded Avitr really has a drag coefficient of 0.21 as advertised. He took his Avitr to get wind tunnel test and the tested Cd is 0.2818 at 120km/h, 30% more inflated than the claimed number. Now what about officially claimed Cd of 0.195 for BYD U7, 0.199 for Geely E8, 0.195 for Xiaomi SU7, etc? In comparison, Model S has a drag coefficient of 0.208.

This Chinese driver owns both a Tesla vehicle with FSD and Huawei AITO M9 with ADS. He prefers FSD over ADS for his daily driving. FSD can be activated anywhere he wants. ADS can only be activated in pre-mapped areas (not high-definition maps) and it’s still rule-based solution on BEV+transformer architecture. FSD is fundamentally better.

PC AUTO, a known Chinese auto publication, recently reviewed intelligent driving systems from eight major brands: Huawei, BYD, XPeng, Zeekr, LI, Xiaomi, NIO and Tesla. In 2 scenarios where a tree is in the way, FSD is the only system that successfully drove around to stay the course. Every other system failed to proceed. For context, FSD is the only system that doesn’t use lidars. Looks like vision-based approach is superior and can solve edge cases which lidars may not.
