During the Beijing Auto Show, a Wenjie M7 rear-ended a sprinkler truck in Yuncheng, Shanxi Province and collided and caught fire. As a result, many people question whether the question world with Huawei's blessing is still trustworthy. MYAUTO THINKS SO, IF HUAWEI ASKS THE WORLD M7 IS NOT TRUSTWORTHY, IS THE NEW ENERGY VEHICLE WORKS OF OTHER MANUFACTURERS TRUSTWORTHY?

The exaggeration of the industry killed consumers

We are in the era of new energy vehicles, and all kinds of new energy vehicles are undoubtedly the most respected and talked about by every car manufacturer. What semi-solid-state battery, what 800V high-voltage fast charging, what endurance exceeds 2,000 kilometers, etc., they all like to say that their products are very powerful, the design is very beautiful, and there are many functions and ergonomics. When it comes to safety, I like to come up with some terms that consumers can't understand to prove safety.

Returning to the M7, is this car safe enough? Did the individual incidents rip off Huawei's fig leaf or was it caused by improper operation by the user? Or the user only knew that the vehicle had airbags and AEB active braking functions, but did not know the speed and angle of the airbag opening and the speed range of AEB activation. Fortunately, this model is not equipped with an intelligent driving system, and if the intelligent driving system fails, I am afraid that the topic will be further amplified.

Different from traditional energy vehicles, no matter which form of new energy vehicles are very flaunting personality and innovation, in the process, whether for design or cost considerations, they are trying to reduce some mature, simple and easy-to-use things, such as the door handle of the car, from pure mechanical to hidden, if there is an accident, whether you can open the door can only rely on luck. What's more, a car like the Xiaomi SU7, although their innovative door handles use a semi-hidden design, but the mechanical set is completely abandoned. When it comes to an emergency, do you care more about your life, or do you mean that the skin-friendly texture of the Xiaomi SU7's innovative door handle and the comfortable experience brought by the light touch micro switch?

For example, Huawei has repeatedly advertised the leading AEB function, consumers may pay for this function, but how can consumers distinguish the specific difference between Bosch's AEB solution and Huawei's AEB solution, or when consumers buy Huawei Wenjie M7, the sales staff will emphasize to users that our AEB function will only work at a speed of how many to how many hours?

Obviously, it is a bit too professional to ask salespeople to use these standards. Even for the manufacturer's personnel, it is impossible to achieve 100% knowledge of their own models. For example, several hard-core off-road vehicles at the Beijing Auto Show, they pulled a wire rope from the side of the hood to the top of the A-pillar, and the staff of several manufacturers couldn't understand what they were used for. Not to mention letting them accurately report what this configuration is called. An Australian-style off-road tree separator still confuses the manufacturer's staff, how can they understand that their own superior products will have so many details?

Therefore, we look at the European Euro NCAP initiative that all new cars sent for testing must be equipped with designated physical buttons from January 1, 2026, and their thoroughness of the problem seems to be more worthy of our learning. When new energy vehicles become more and more bells and whistles, safety is the greatest luxury.
