On January 26, according to Sina Auto, citing people familiar with the matter, Tesla will officially sue a platform of tens of millions of fans (account name @ Xiaogang Xuechang) today, the original reason for the prosecution is that the latter used the information network to carry out defamation. According to this news, Sina Auto contacted the relevant departments of Tesla for the first time, and the relevant departments of Tesla officially responded that "there is indeed this matter" and formally filed a lawsuit with the court today.

According to the automotive industry' concerns, "Xiaogang Senior" released two test videos on April 29 and 30, 2021, respectively, for the Tesla Model 3 and Xiaopeng P7 emergency braking test, respectively, installed a paper car on the lane and an inflatable dummy to test the emergency braking function of the vehicle, and the final "test" results showed that Tesla Model 3 failed to brake and crash into the paper car and dummy, while the Xiaopeng P7 was perfect emergency braking brake. As a result, it is obvious that the emergency braking performance of the Xiaopeng P7 is significantly better than that of the Tesla Model 3. According to the data, the two videos received more than 600,000 likes.

However, the "testing" process has triggered a fierce discussion, and another blogger, "Xiao Li Feiche", has posted multiple videos questioning the authenticity of the test content, and the incident has continued to ferment and triggered fierce discussions. "Xiao Li Feiche" said in the video that "Xiao Gang Senior" secretly stepped on an electric door when testing tesla Model 3, the detail is that tesla screen can show the status of stepping on the electric door and kinetic energy recovery, and Tesla Model 3 in front of crashing into the paper car, the energy bar of the car machine shows that there is still power output.

In response to this question, "Xiao Gang Senior" posted a video response on his trumpet "Xiao Gang's Daily Life": because the test conditions at that time were 50 kilometers per hour, the oil collection was too early, the kinetic energy recovery would reduce the speed, so it stepped on the throttle for rigor. It emphasizes that tesla manuals state that the conditions for emergency braking cannot be touched, one of which is to perform violent acceleration before braking before emergency braking, and it believes that it cannot make a violent acceleration by stepping on the electric door, which does not affect its emergency braking intervention.

Judging from the response of "Xiaogang Senior", no matter what the purpose, it has admitted to stepping on the electric door before the collision, and from the time point of time when the "Xiaogang Senior" released the Tesla Model 3 emergency brake test, it is Tesla's controversial period in China. On April 19, 2021, at the 19th Shanghai International Auto Show Media Day, a woman wearing a white T-shirt with a "brake failure" stood on the roof of a Tesla exhibition car and shouted "Tesla brake failure", the scene was chaotic, and finally the woman was carried away from the scene. After the incident, the market was once full of rumors of "Tesla brake failure", and there were many accidents in a short period of time. In this context, auto media people have carried out emergency braking tests on Tesla models, whether it is out of the study of facts or to win traffic, and from the multi-party test results, it cannot actually prove whether Tesla has brake failure.

At that time, after the "Xiaogang Senior" conducted an emergency braking test on the Tesla Model 3, some netizens actually questioned the test. In this regard, "Xiao Gang Senior" released a video "Tesla test without clipping record", and explained that because the first test some people said that they stepped on the accelerator, so they tested again, and the result was still unable to brake.

Before the Tesla rights protection incident, ByteDance's auto media Zhichedi had tested AEB performance at a speed of 40km, 50km and 60km per hour for the audi Q5L, Tesla Model Y, and Weilai EC6 models, respectively, and the results were successfully braked, but the car emperor said that "Tesla Model Y performed best among the three cars." In May 2021, Zhichedi tested the AEB function of Xiaopeng P7 and carried out 30/40/50km/h static frontal collisions respectively. The test results showed that the Xiaopeng P7 failed to brake at speeds of 20km and 30km/h.

"The automatic emergency braking function, also known as AEB, is capable of monitoring the driving environment in front of the vehicle in real time and automatically activating the vehicle braking system to slow the vehicle down when there is a possible collision hazard to avoid collisions or mitigate the consequences of collisions. According to C-SCAP, AEB testing has special test standards and methods, and the general AEB test obstacles need to consider three points, radar characteristics, reflectivity, and visual characteristics. In other words, the use of paper cars to test vehicles is clearly not up to standard, and this test method has also been questioned. However, "Xiao Gang Senior" also emphasized in the video, "These two are my own, just do a simple test, and record it, just look at it." ”

It is understood that "Xiaogang Xuechang" has 14 million fans on a short video platform, and is one of the high-volume auto bloggers with greater influence. In response to Tesla's lawsuit, "Xiao Gang Senior" roughly responded on Weibo that "I know.". As for Tesla, as of press time, the specific information of the lawsuit has not been disclosed.
