The new development of ▌ ideal car urgently refutes the rumors: false rumors have been reported to the public security organs, Red Star News, there are Internet rumors that ideal car has signed a contract with a dealer in Uzbakstan.
Ideal car responded that the recent online spread of “the latest development of the ideal car out to sea”, “Uzbekistan signed” and other pictures and texts are false rumors.
The ideal car said that after verification, the “Uzbek sales authorization contract” shown in some online pictures is not an ideal car official behavior, and the picture is falsely manufacturing and spreading false information in the name of the ideal car.
In addition, the ideal car has not organized and received any factory visits aimed at dealers about the description of the so-called visit to the ideal car factory by the relevant personnel.
Ideal Automobile has collected relevant evidence and reported the case to the public security organs.
The specific situation needs to wait for the results of the police investigation.

Xiaomi Automobile gave a further explanation in answering netizens’ questions (episode 17) on the evening of April 14.
Xiaomi said that Xiaomi needs to queue again after the SU7 has been modified, which is fairer to all users.
The delay of pick-up time depends on the locking time of the user’s current order.

And it is non-refundable after the successful rematch, please be careful with the rematch.
As for the question of “why it is time-limited for one day”.
Xiaomi said that the production of the factory and the preparation of materials are prepared in advance according to everyone’s locking order, and if a large number of modifications continue, it will lead to production confusion, untimely supply of materials, and then affect the efficiency of production and delivery of vehicles.
In order to ensure the delivery cycle of all users, the company chose the scheme to minimize the impact, hoping to be understood by everyone.

▌ Tesla’s self-driving taxi plan has been questioned, and regulators have not received the relevant license application.
According to IT House on April 14, Tesla CEO Elon Musk announced last week that a self-driving taxi product would be released in August, but the two California agencies responsible for regulating self-driving taxis said they had not received Tesla’s application for the relevant plan.
According to IT House, California is at the forefront of the development of self-driving taxis in the United States, and companies that want to operate self-driving taxi services need at least two licenses.
The California Department of Motor vehicles (DMV) is responsible for issuing self-driving car road test permits, while the California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC) is responsible for issuing business licenses.
Currently, Tesla holds only the lowest self-driving car road test permit in DMV, California, allowing him to test in the presence of a human safety driver.
California has not issued any company the highest level of license to allow fully self-driving.
Industry insiders believe that it may take longer for Tesla to obtain a license to operate a self-driving taxi, or it may not be approved at all.
Tesla’s approach to self-driving technology is different from that of companies such as Waymo, relying more on its existing auxiliary driving system rather than expensive lidar and other sensors.
However, Tesla has not yet disclosed the car technology that can be fully self-driving, and his “fully self-driving” products still require human drivers to take over the vehicle at any time.
