Tens of millions of fan bloggers apologized to Tesla and compensated 120,000 yuan

Recently, Tesla filed a reputation infringement case against the short video blogger "Xiaogang Senior": the court found that Chen XX (account name @Xiaogang senior) was legally liable for infringement after trial, and ruled that he should publicly apologize to Tesla and compensate 120,000 yuan.

Previously, Tesla officially sued @小刚学长 in January 2022 for the latter's use of information networks to commit defamation.

It is understood that @小刚学长 released two test videos on April 29 and 30, 2021, respectively, for Tesla Model 3 and Xpeng P7 emergency braking test, respectively, the installation of a paper car on the lane and an inflatable dummy to test the emergency braking function of the vehicle, the final "test" results show that Tesla Model 3 failed to brake and hit the paper car and the dummy, while Xpeng P7 perfect emergency braking stop. As a result, the Xpeng P7's emergency braking performance is significantly better than that of the Tesla Model 3.

In the video, "Xiaogang Senior" installed a 1:1 car-shaped stand plate and an inflatable dummy on the lane to test the automatic emergency braking function. Through his comparative tests, Tesla did not brake during the car test, and did not brake when performing the dummy test.

During the test, "Senior Xiaogang" drove the Tesla Model 3 to the 1:1 car-shaped stand, and as a result, the car-shaped stand was knocked into the air. And when driving towards the dummy, the dummy was also knocked to the ground. "Senior Xiaogang" said that the system of Tesla Model 3 "although I recognized (dummy), I heard the alarm in my car, and there was also a braking action, but it still crashed over."

"Senior Xiaogang" also said that when Tesla was doing emergency braking of the vehicle, it succeeded once three times, "two of which crashed into it, and there was no braking response."

After the video was released, it spread widely on the Internet, and it was a critical moment for Tesla to encounter negative public opinion about "brake failure", and under the impetus of the video results, public opinion was even more one-sided, and Tesla was engraved with the impression of "brake failure". Therefore, on January 26, 2022, Tesla officially sued Xiaogang senior, alleging that the latter used information networks to commit defamatory acts.

It is worth mentioning that after the test video caused controversy on the Internet, some netizens said that they questioned @小gangsenior secretly stepped on the electric door when testing the Tesla Model 3, the detail is that the Tesla screen can display the status of stepping on the electric door and kinetic energy recovery, and the Tesla Model 3 Before crashing into the paper car, the energy bar of the car machine still shows that there is still power output.

On January 27, 2022, "Senior Xiaogang" released a video emphasizing that "at least under our test conditions, its active braking system did not activate. ”

"Senior Xiaogang" said: "Because the test condition at that time was 50 kilometers per hour, the oil was collected too early, and the kinetic energy recovery would slow down the speed, so I stepped on the accelerator for the sake of rigor." He stressed that Tesla's manual states that the conditions for emergency braking cannot be reached, one of which is to accelerate violently before braking before emergency braking, and he believes that he can not accelerate violently by pressing the electric door lightly, which does not affect his emergency braking intervention.

"Senior Xiaogang" said that if he was for malicious smearing, there was no need to test it twice, and there was no problem with the operation of the second time, but the AED of the Tesla Model 3 still did not start.

In the response video, the "Xiaogang senior" also shouted to Tesla: "I hope to invite the notary office, Tesla officials, and other media and even fans to verify together, Tesla, do you dare?"
