BYD has developed a technology to eject the battery upon a severe crash in order to prevent fires or explosions.
Tesla has developed a technology to suspend the self driving mode milliseconds before crash so they legally aren't liable when the car catches fire or explodes.

Analysis Summary
This post makes two unsupported claims framed as direct equivalence: that BYD ejects batteries in crashes (unverifiable, no credible source documents this) and that Tesla deliberately disengages Autopilot milliseconds before crashes to avoid liability (fabricatedβthis inverts how Tesla's systems actually work and suggests an illegal liability-evasion scheme with zero evidence). Neither claim is supported by automotive safety reporting, company disclosures, or regulatory filings. The framing uses false equivalence to suggest both companies are playing the same safety shell game when one claim is unverified and the other is implausible.
Claims Analysis (2)
βBYD has developed a technology to eject the battery upon a severe crash in order to prevent fires or explosions.β
No credible source confirms BYD has developed or deployed battery ejection technology as a crash safety feature. News search returns general BYD battery coverage but no mention of ejection systems.
βTesla has developed a technology to suspend the self driving mode milliseconds before crash so they legally aren't liable when the car catches fire or explodes.β
This describes an implausible liability-evasion scheme with no credible evidence. Tesla's Autopilot disengages based on sensor input and driver intervention, not pre-crash detection designed to avoid liability. The claim inverts causalityβif a vehicle is unsafe, disengaging automation does not create legal immunity.
