A few days ago, some netizens broke the news on a media platform that an Ideal ONE rear-ended a Weilai EC6 on the highway and caught fire. It is reported that both drivers and passengers were uninjured. The cause of the accident is still under investigation. I don’t know if it’s fate or coincidence, but as a representative of the new force, I will always be compared, but this is how we met today.
It can be seen from the pictures that the two cars suffered varying degrees of damage after the collision. It seems that the impact force was not small. The rear of the Weilai EC6 was damaged and severely deformed. The rear trunk glass was broken, one side of the bumper was dented, and the taillights were cracked. A fire broke out in the front of the Ideal ONE, and the front engine room was severely burned, with the risk of spreading to the entire body.
So far, neither Ideal nor NIO officials have responded to the incident.
At this time, a self-proclaimed Ideal One car owner came out and posted a message, saying that he was very chilled to see this! I posted a post on the Ideal app and it was deleted instantly. I think Ideal officials should investigate the reason as soon as possible and respond instead of deleting the post to cover up the public.
In October sales, Weilai experienced a sharp decline. Only 921 EC6 models were sold; while the sales volume of Lideal One was 7,649 units. They are both new forces in car manufacturing, but when they met in a rear-end collision, they were really at odds. At this time, I thought of Musk's poem "We are born from the same roots, so there is no need to worry about each other."
