News writer Images of the aftermath of the collision between the two electric vehicles are circulating on social media: Tesla Model Y and Xiaomi SU7. The accident occurred in one of China’s highway tunnels, where SU7 crashed into the back of Model Y. Both cars sustained different levels of damage, and this sparked a lively discussion among users. The most active discussion and dissemination of photos of the accident was picked up by Tesla supporters, who pointed out the minimal damage to the Model Y compared to the wrecked Xiaomi SU7. The photos show that the accident occurred in a tunnel, with three of the four photos taken directly at the scene and one taken later, in daylight, when the Xiaomi SU7 was evacuated. Apparently, the Xiaomi SU7 crashed into the rear of the Tesla Model Y at high speed. However, there are no official explanations for the accident. The condition of the drivers of both cars is also unknown. The Tesla Model Y suffered damage to the rear of the body and bumper, while the front of the Xiaomi SU7 was almost completely destroyed. However, despite comments from Tesla supporters pointing to the «impressive strength» Model Y and «weak construction» Xiaomi SU7, such conclusions are incorrect. The fact is that the Xiaomi SU7 is equipped with a reinforced protective capsule for passenger safety. Its front end, like many modern cars, serves as a deformation zone. It is specially designed to fold in the event of a collision, thereby increasing braking time and reducing impact force. This helps reduce the risk of injury to the driver and passengers. The Tesla Model Y, in turn, has received high safety ratings from many international organizations, so the level of damage to its rear end, as seen in the photo, is quite expected. We also note that during a recent accident, when Cybertruck with FSD v13 crashes into a poleThe front of the Tesla also received significant damage.
