Huawei Yu Chengdong: "User Center Test Drive Accident" was caused by the customer accidentally stepping on the accelerator pedal and AEB did not intervene.

In response to the "test drive accident at Dongguan Liaobu User Center" circulating today, Yu Chengdong, chairman of Huawei Smart Car Solutions BU, responded that during a door-to-door test drive on November 13, the customer mistakenly pressed the accelerator as the brake when reversing, causing the car to hit the car behind.

Regarding the non-intervention of the AEB function, Yu Chengdong said that after communicating with the ADS team and quality, the vehicle's rear emergency braking does not recognize stationary vehicles, and the manual has clearly marked it. After the R gear is mounted, the throttle is 100% twice for a total of 4 seconds. The acceleration is -5.83m/s2, the maximum speed of the drive motor is 3180, the maximum torque is 300Nm, and the maximum speed is 32.82km/h. Combined with the external recorder video, it is judged that the customer mistakenly stepped on the wrong accelerator pedal.

Earlier this afternoon, a video of a Wenjie M5 Smart Driving Edition test drive improperly reversing and "riding" on top of a BYD Dolphin attracted the attention of netizens. The Dolphin's door panel was damaged, and the M5's rear bumper was also damaged to a certain extent. Dolphin's driving recorder showed that the accident occurred suddenly when the Wenjie M5 was reversing.
