From knock-off old-man's electric vehicles to industrial giant

Chapter 267 What? The Starry Sky L7 spontaneously combusted?
The first batch of car owners who took delivery of their vehicles have officially received the update push for the new version of the in-vehicle infotainment system.

This is a very novel thing for many car owners who have switched from traditional gasoline cars.

Cars... can even be updated like mobile phone operating systems.

Always fresh and useful!

"No exaggeration, this guard mode is the most innovative feature I've ever seen, it's absolutely amazing..."

Fei Zhaoning posted the video exported from the car's infotainment system to the group chat: "Yesterday I got robbed when the door opened while I was shopping, but guess what? The security guard automatically recorded it, and this little punk next to me wouldn't admit it. I just showed him the video to check the license plate in person, called the traffic police to determine liability, and he paid me 500 yuan for a seamless repair on the spot..."

He felt completely refreshed!
Anyone who frequently parks outside knows this.

It's impossible to avoid being killed when the door is opened.

Fei Zhaoning's previous X5 had been bumped and dented countless times. The luxurious, brand-new doors had developed several dents!

However, the number of times the real culprit is found is very small. Sometimes, even he himself doesn't realize when the car door was broken. Over time, he just gets used to it.

I'm really at my wit's end.

But his newly purchased Starry Night L7 will allow him to redeem himself in this regard.

He felt so relieved after venting his anger that he spent the whole day praising the car online!
What a baby!
Nice car!!
"Look...it's published again!"

"Huh? I was already envious of the traffic light countdown last time, and now there's a 24/7 automatic monitoring system? Cars are so smart these days!!"

"I can't resist anymore, I'm really going to order one!"

This is an X5 owner's communication group.

Since Fei Zhaoning started sharing his car usage updates in the group, several more Xingchen L7 owners quickly joined the group.

There is no hierarchy of contempt, nor excessive brand rivalry.

All they felt was the excitement of discovering a new toy.

Once you've driven a BBA (BMW, Mercedes-Benz, Audi) car, the allure fades, and owners in this segment often own more than one car.

For them, whether to change cars or purchase additional vehicles depends solely on whether their needs can be met.

"Last time I went to the 4S store to update the map package with a USB drive, it took me three hours round trip, and I had to wait in line. Now, new energy vehicles can update with just a tap of a finger. I'm so envious."

Some people are sighing.

What's most annoying is that some new cars still require a separate charge from the dealership for map updates after the warranty expires. Although you can find solutions online, it only makes things more irritating.

They used to tolerate it because other cars on the market were like that too.

Seeing new energy vehicles that cost half the price of a car and yet offer free, unlimited upgrades creates a truly unbalanced sense of disparity.

Fei Zhaoning chuckled, "Anyway, whoever drives this car knows how good it is. I've given the X5 to my father-in-law now. Anyway, I'm going out for some skewers and a foot massage..."

He drove out, humming a little tune as he drove along the road.

It was during school dismissal time, and there was a lot of traffic on the street. After driving for a few minutes, it started to drizzle. As the car was going around a bend at a constant speed of 35 miles per hour, an electric scooter suddenly darted out from the flower bed exit in the blind spot.

"Please stop! Please stop!!"

Accompanied by the car's urgent warning tone, Fei Zhaoning didn't even have time to react before a sudden, forceful braking slammed him into his seat.

Before anyone could react, the car came to a stop at the last second, just half a meter away from the electric scooter, thus preventing a "ghost pedestrian" accident!

"Big sister... be careful!!"

Opening the car window, Fei Zhaoning saw a mother and her child, just released from school, sitting on the electric scooter. Her blood pressure spiked. The scooter had a transparent rain shelter, further limiting her view at the intersection. "I'm so sorry, so sorry..." the mother said, her face pale.

Fei Zhaoning was still in shock. After carefully looking at the status display on the car's infotainment system, she realized that the car's AEB (Autonomous Emergency Braking) system had probably triggered to stop the car and prevent the accident.

Just then, the car banged again!
Another delivery rider wearing a raincoat sped out of the intersection at an unusual speed. Unable to stop in time, the rider crashed violently into the side of the front of the vehicle, and the rider and the food were thrown into the air by the force of the impact!
"This—" Fei Zhaoning was dumbfounded!

Looking at the chaotic scene and the increasingly chaotic intersection, he could only get out of the car immediately and call the traffic police and emergency services. Looking back, he saw that the damage to the front of his car was not large, but the front of the food delivery scooter was severely damaged, as if some wiring had been damaged, and it quickly started to emit smoke.

This is a food delivery scooter modified with a lithium battery; the entire front of the scooter is stuck in the front wheel of a Xingchen L7.

Accompanied by the "order is about to expire" notification sound from a mobile phone on the ground, the electric scooter spontaneously combusted at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Very obvious flames and smoke quickly shot up to the front of the car.

Fei Zhaoning's scalp tingled!

"Ouch, there's been a car accident!" "Get out of the way, the battery's exploding!" "The electric vehicle's on fire!!"...

The crowd at the intersection, who were about to gather to watch, kept exclaiming in surprise, while passersby and onlookers on electric bikes further away immediately took out their phones to film.

From their perspective, they could see the side and rear of the car from a distance, with huge flames and black smoke billowing from the front.

At first glance.

It was as if the car had spontaneously combusted.

……

Zhang Huan, along with other employees in the marketing department, spent an afternoon searching online and collecting information from various channels.

Ultimately, they collected material on fifteen Star Car accidents that occurred within three months.

Eleven of the car accidents were from the Starry Sky S7, and four were from the Starry Sky L7.

As for the Starry Sky Mini, there's no need to look for that.

Even if you post it, people will just say, "This price is amazing!"

He focused on the car accident footage of the Starry Night L7.

The sales volume and market popularity of this car can only be described as booming, making it the model that has dealt the biggest blow to the Highlander.

However, three of these four Starry Sky L7 accidents involved minor scratches and very ordinary collisions, making it difficult to generate much discussion online.

There was also a very serious car accident.

It was rear-ended by a truck.

The rear of the car was severely deformed, but under such heavy force, the rear of the Xingchen L7 and the anti-collision beam withstood the impact, and none of the people in the car were injured.

This made Zhang Huan frown again.

—This car is fucking hard!!
Based on the photos, the truck involved in the rear-end collision must have weighed at least 30 tons. Even though the speed of the collision was not high, it still left this industry insider speechless.

If this is posted...

Not only will it not have the effect of offsetting or smearing, it may even make people praise the quality of the car.

Isn't that just paying money to promote our competitors?
"Director! Latest news... There was a car accident in Seoul this afternoon, a Star 7 L7 spontaneously combusted!!" An employee pushed open the office door and brought over a picture.
