AshleyMay 31, 2024, 10:47 AM
On May 30th, the first-instance judgment of the dispute over the reputation rights between Tesla (Shanghai) Co., Ltd. and Ms. Zhang was pronounced. The plaintiff is Tesla (Shanghai) Co., Ltd., the defendant is Ms. Zhang, and the People's Court of Qingpu District, Shanghai, made a first-instance judgment on this case on May 30th: Ms. Zhang publicly apologizes and compensates Tesla (Shanghai) Co., Ltd. for a total loss of 172,275 yuan(RMB).
Ms. Zhang is the Shanghai Auto Show Tesla car roof rights defender. On April 19, 2021, during the Shanghai Auto Show, she climbed onto the roof of the Tesla show car, exclaiming "Tesla brakes failed", and was pulled down and taken away after 3 minutes. Not only that, Ms. Zhang also painted her own Tesla vehicle with the words "brake failure", and placed it on the road, showing Ms. Zhang's Tesla.
According to the judgment of the court, the Qingpu Court in Shanghai believes: In this case, Ms. Zhang did not provide any evidence to prove that the vehicle involved in the case indeed had a brake failure, and she also explicitly admitted in court that the brake failure claimed during the act involved was her subjective judgement. Tesla has never admitted to this fact. During the trial of the case, Ms. Zhang did not apply for judicial appraisal on whether there was a brake failure in the car involved in the case. Therefore, according to the principle of "who claims, who proves", Ms. Zhang should bear the legal consequences of failure to prove.

Perodua Traz VS Ativa, which one is more worth buying?
Traz, as a newly launched mid-sized SUV, offers more spacious room and mainstream power compared to small SUVs, but its pricing appears slightly higher than that of Ativa. Ativa, on the other hand, is Perodua's long-time best-selling small SUV with more affordable pricing and a balanced combination of power and tech features.
Perodua Myvi and Bezza may undergo major upgrades in 2026
After the update, the Bezza will no longer be just a low-cost alternative but a core model in the Perodua system with greater market competitiveness and brand premium potential. The upgrade of the Myvi is not to be unconventional but to strengthen the brand and market, ensuring that the Myvi continues to maintain its irreplaceable position in the new round of product competition.
Perodua Traz VS Toyota Yaris Cross, where does the Traz fall short?
Before the official launch of the Perodua Traz, market expectations were actually very high because it shares the same DNGA platform as the Toyota Yaris Cross. However, sharing the same platform does not equate to the same experience, and the Traz's final performance has indeed been disappointing. Perhaps it is precisely because of the delayed launch that it has almost no competitiveness in the current competitive environment.
Will the Toyota Yaris Cross come to Malaysia? If it comes, how much will it sell for?
The launch of Perodua Traz indicates that the market size of small SUVs in Malaysia has been expanding in recent years. However, the question naturally shifts back to Toyota. As a brand with the most comprehensive product line and a strong foundation in both the SUV and hybrid sectors, will Toyota choose the Yaris Cross to participate in this small SUV competition?
Why is the Toyota Sienna so popular with so many people?
In Malaysia, most family MPVs choose Toyota Alphard, Vellfire, or Kia Carnival. These models each have their advantages in luxury, space, or brand influence, but models that truly balance large space, multifunctional practicality, fuel efficiency, and reliability are rarely seen.
