AutoBeta(AutoBeta.net)09/21 Report--

With the development of automobile intelligence, the auxiliary driving system has increasingly become the selling point for automobile manufacturers to publicize and popularize. The system integrates many auxiliary functions, including AEB automatic braking auxiliary function, parallel auxiliary function, lane departure warning and so on. Among them, Tesla's driving assistance function has a high popularity in the industry, which is also an important factor that Tesla brand attracts many consumers. However, a video of Model 3 crashing a dummy into a broken limb at a car intelligence challenge has gone viral, prompting netizens to question the reliability of Tesla's driving system.

Recently, a car manufacturer openly held a car intelligence challenge, including Tesla Model 3. Among them, in the "moving dummy crossing" AEB automatic brake test project, the performance of Model 3 was a bit of a surprise.

From the test results recorded in the video, Tesla Model 3 drove normally at a certain speed, while a dummy simulating jaywalking appeared in front of him. In theory, models equipped with auxiliary driving systems should be able to give early warning and reduce or avoid collisions in the form of emergency braking. While Model 3 directly hit the dummy and smashed it to pieces, the automatic braking function does not seem to play a significant role here.

According to Tesla's official data, all new Tesla vehicles are equipped with basic driving assistance functions, such as emergency braking, collision warning and blind spot monitoring. Vehicles can automatically assist in steering, acceleration and braking according to other vehicles and pedestrians in the driveway.

The test performance of Model 3 in the video has aroused heated discussion among netizens. Some netizens believe that Tesla Model 3's recognition of laterally moving objects still needs to be improved.

Tesla Automobile (Beijing) Co., Ltd. certified Weibo "Tesla customer support" also responded after the test video went viral online.

Under a video released by a media, Tesla customer support official blog responded, "the automobile industry testing is professional, and any informal official testing and out-of-context video will only mislead the general public and consumers. And bring harm to the auto industry as a whole. The official blog also said that as peers, we call on everyone to respect each other, respect and abide by the minimum business ethics and ethics, adopt proper marketing methods and methods, and jointly promote the healthy development of the industry as a whole. Thanks to all those who have made efforts to transform the world to sustainable energy.

If a single video doesn't tell the whole story, take a look at the four-car comparison test done by another media. The four cars are respectively the performance version of ES6, ideal ONE, GAC NE Aion LX and Tesla Model 3 standard life upgrade. There are two main test items: moving the dummy across and moving the dummy probe.

In the "moving dummy Crossing" test project, the dummies moved and crossed the road at the speed of 5km/h, while four cars passed at the speed of 40km/h. The other three cars dodged successfully, only the Model 3 hit the dummy.

In the "moving dummy probe" test project, using the same speed, the ideal ONE and GAC NE Aion LX could issue an early warning and perform AEB emergency braking, but failed to completely avoid it under such extreme conditions. ES6 issued an early warning while AEB emergency braking to avoid collisions.

And Tesla Model 3 performance is still the same, even if issued a warning, but the vehicle has no meaning of emergency braking and deceleration, and finally hit the dummy again.

Some people in the industry believe that, "the characteristic of this kind of function is that the performance is extremely unstable." Pedestrians can be identified in theory and may be stopped in theory, but it is also common to bump people off directly. Nothing is certain. " But in contrast, Tesla repeatedly bumped dummies off, which has disappointed many consumers.
