BYD assumes full crash liability when God's Eye is active

At its May 28 vehicle intelligence event BYD announced it will assume full financial liability for at-fault crashes that occur while its God's Eye urban autonomous driving system is active - covering repairs to the owner's car, third-party property damage, and personal injury - making it the first major automaker to do so and setting a sharp contrast with Tesla, which has never accepted liability for FSD-active crashes. The guarantee applies to both God's Eye A and the LiDAR-equipped God's Eye B (a 12,000-yuan/~$1,770 option) across BYD's lineup, taking effect on new deliveries and extending to existing owners who update to God's Eye 5.0 over the air. The policy lands as BYD also rolls out the Xuanji A3 4nm smart-driving chip and reports record May overseas deliveries of 160,644 units.
