BYD will pay for crashes on its FSD competitor, something Tesla never has
BYD says it will assume full financial liability for at-fault accidents that happen while its “God’s Eye” urban driving system is active in China — with no cap on the payout.
AI Summary
BYD's recent announcement marks a significant shift in liability for its urban driving system, "God's Eye." The company has stated that it will assume full financial responsibility for accidents caused by its system, with no limit on the payout. This move stands in contrast to Tesla's approach to its Full Self-Driving technology, which has not made a similar commitment. BYD's decision to take on full liability for its system's mistakes could have implications for the industry's standard liability model. The decision to assume full liability for accidents caused by its system may indicate BYD's confidence in the capabilities of "God's Eye" or a desire to differentiate itself from competitors.
