   Recent ADAS testing by Chinese auto media Dongchedi revealed key industry insights. Tesla CEO Elon Musk shared the test video on X platform, sparking discussions. 

   Conducted under CCTV supervision, the evaluation exposed critical gaps in current driver assistance systems.

1. Highway Scenario Performance

  • Tesla dominated with Model 3/X achieving  5/6 pass rate in simulated accident scenarios
  • Handled "highway merging vehicles" well but failed in complex conditions like night construction zones
  • Huawei's AITO M9 scored 3/6, hitting construction barrels in one test
  • Xiaomi SU7 performed poorly (1/6), while Ideal L6 and Zeekr 001 failed all tests

Xiaomi SU71/6Multiple scenario failures
Ideal L60/6All test scenarios failed

2. Urban Driving Challenges

Tesla Model X (2023 Dual Motor AWD) outperformed with 8/9 success rate across 9 urban scenarios:

  1. Entering traffic circles
  2. Merging within circles
  3. Pedestrian crossings
  4. Emergency vehicle avoidance
  5. Complex U-turns

Close competitors:

  • Zhiji R7 & Avatr 12: 7/9
  • Avatr 07 & AITO M7: 5-6/9

Critical failures occurred during:

  • Sudden scooter intrusions
  • Blind spot left turns
  • Reversing challenges

3. Industry Warnings & Expert Insights

Key findings from experts:

All tested systems remain L2 (SAE standards)

93% of L2 accidents stem from driver overreliance

China Auto Association warns against misleading "autonomous driving" claims

Professor Zhu Xican (Tongji University) emphasizes:

"Current tech still struggles with dynamic road changes and sudden conflicts. Marketing claims often exceed actual capabilities."

Safety reminders:

  • Drivers must maintain hand-on-wheel control
  • Systems cannot handle all edge cases
  • Progress should focus on core safety over marketing promises
