Last Friday, after Tesla slashed prices, the Tesla Taikoo Li store in Chengdu took place the most intense car owner rights protection activity since Tesla entered China.
Blogger @不是郑小康 said, “The demands of car owners are 100,000 kilometers of overcharging + 1 million points + FSD lifetime use rights + 2-4 years of vehicle warranty extension, which may add up to more than 100,000 yuan.”
According to upstream news, in response to the price cut, the store staff responded: "There is no non-disclosure agreement, and there is no (compensation) plan. It is indeed Tesla's official price adjustment."
Reuters also confirmed the news last Sunday, saying that a Tesla China spokesperson told him that Tesla does not intend to compensate owners who drive cars before reducing prices.
In addition, Tiger Sniff quoted Sun Shaojun, the founder of Auto Fans, as saying that Tesla is expected to continue to cut prices in the middle and late second quarter of this year.

Tesla shareholders ask board to prepare for succession
Tesla's board of directors is under increasing pressure in recent days as investors demand they demonstrate that Tesla is ready to lose key figure Elon Musk.
Tesla shareholder Karen Roberts-Dottir has submitted a proposal for investors to vote at the annual shareholder meeting in May on whether Tesla's board should prepare and maintain a "key-person risk" report.
In the proposal, Robertsdottir called on Tesla to document the succession procedures and processes for key personnel, thereby mitigating the potential financial impact on the company if these personnel leave. (Sina Finance)

The knob in the middle of the Ford electric horse has a new purpose
I still remember that in the Ford China Design Center last year, many media made a lot of comments to the Ford Electric Horse. One of them was the knob on the central control screen. The function is too single, and it should not only be able to adjust the volume.
However, Ford has brought a number of software upgrades in the latest "Power Up 4.1.2" firmware, including the use of a physical knob in the middle of the screen to control the air conditioner.
Ford electric horse owners only need to click the temperature, air volume, or seat heating buttons on the screen, and then they can perform corresponding operations through the physical knob in the middle.
In addition, Ford's "SYNC 4A" infotainment system also uses newly designed icons, and some settings and controls have also been integrated, making the logic more reasonable.
Mercedes-Benz gets L3 autonomous driving license in the US

I don't know if the speed limit is still 60km/h.
