AutoBeta(AutoBeta.net)10/22 Report--

Ideal ONE, a subsidiary of ideal Automobile, has sold more than 20, 000 in 10 months, setting a record for the new power of car building in China, which is enough to prove that its brand has won a lot of popularity. But at the same time, the model has also encountered frequent accidents recently. According to media reports, another accident occurred within a month following the sudden high-speed rear-end collision of an ideal ONE at the end of September.

On October 20, an ideal owner drove an ideal electric car 1761 kilometers south of the Beijing-Hong Kong-Macao Expressway when it rear-ended with a semitrailer truck. Judging from the photos of the accident scene, the accident caused two vehicles to be damaged, but the ideal ONE did not cause the broken shaft and A-pillar fracture, only the top of the right engine room collided with the truck, resulting in a tear between the engine room cover and the right front fender.

According to the owner's description, the vehicle also turned on the autopilot function of the ideal ONE at that time, and his hand was also on the steering wheel. Due to the general lighting at night, he did not notice that the truck in front of him had changed lanes. When he was watching to the right, the vehicle suddenly rear-ended the truck in front of him.

It is worth noting that, according to the owner, there was no sound in the car at the time of the accident, the auxiliary driving system and the active safety system failed to identify the front car, and the airbag did not eject.

After the investigation of the traffic police department, it is finally determined that the ideal ONE driver is fully responsible for the accident, and relevant notification has been made.

Through the investigation, Li, the driver of the front semitrailer truck, operated normally and belonged to a normal lane change, but the ideal electric car driven by Mr. Yang maintained a speed of 111 kilometers per hour before the collision due to the use of autopilot function. failed to find that the vehicle in front of the lane changed to slow down and brake in time, resulting in an accident. Mr. Yang took full responsibility for the accident, but fortunately there were no casualties.

So far, the ideal side has not given a specific response, but the statement given by ideal Motor on Oct. 13 can be used as a reference. After all, it was the same white ideal ONE that had an accident on the highway at the end of September.

The traffic recorder showed that a van on the right front of the highway began to turn on the light to the left and gradually entered the owner's lane, but the ideal ONE for "auxiliary driving" did not seem to slow down. The video stopped abruptly when the van changed lane to one stroke 3, when the distance between the two cars was only two or three meters.

The owner said that the ideal ONE that turned on the "auxiliary driving" did not give any warning and showed no sign of slowing down. when he found that it was too late to brake in front of the car, the ideal ONE hit the left rear of the truck in the right front, and the A-pillar broke directly.

As a result of the accident, the reply that the ideal ONE did not see the airbag detonation was "because the place where it hit is not the main point", which quickly aroused heated discussion among netizens.

On October 14, the official response of the ideal car was that the A-pillar of the vehicle was squeezed separately in the accident, and the longitudinal beam of the front cabin, the front finger beam, the anti-collision beam and the energy absorption box were not obviously deformed, which did not belong to the protection scene of the airbag. And at present, there is no car in the A-pillar design airbag sensor.

At the same time, the ideal car says that the current auxiliary driving system has limitations for the identification of vehicles in the side lane changing into the main lane, so it can not be identified as the main target when the vehicles in the side lane are merged into the body of 1x5, and the Level2-level auxiliary system can not completely replace the driver to make decisions.

It has to be said that every time the ideal ONE responds quite quickly after an accident, it also makes some car owners and netizens agree, but as a new brand, just after the sales of 20, 000 vehicles have just been completed, a number of accidents have been frequently exposed, which undoubtedly makes more potential consumers doubt. In this regard, I hope that the ideal car should timely investigate and give the reasons, in view of the deficiencies and product problems, but also timely inform the majority of car owners to achieve more positive development of the brand.
