Lynk & Co 10 EM-P falls off 100m cliff; driver escapes with minor injuries
Early on Oct 9, a Lynk & Co 10 EM-P delivered just eight days earlier lost control on a mountain road in Luzhou, Sichuan at roughly 50 km/h, rolled and fell about 100 metres down a cliff, and was written off. In an Oct 13 statement, Lynk & Co said the occupant cell stayed intact with A/B/C pillars undeformed and doors opening normally, airbags deployed, the traction battery showed no smoke, fire, explosion or leakage, and the emergency rescue system automatically placed a voice call and helped alert police; the driver suffered only abrasions and a minor thoracic vertebra fracture and said he plans to buy the same model again. The report also notes that Lynk & Co is filling its intelligent-driving gap through Geely-Zeekr resource integration, with the 10 EM-P fitting lidar as standard plus H5 and H7 assisted-driving options supporting city NOA.
For AI practitioners this is chiefly an automotive-safety story: even as city NOA coverage and chip TOPS specs converge, vehicle engineering and passive safety still weigh heavily in how buyers judge a car.
