Today, Chenglong Truck, the truck brand involved in the controversial Li Auto i8 crash test, released a poster that appears to take aim at Li Auto. The poster reads "Safety is not just empty talk or ideals, but our practical protection for every journey" and "There are thousands of roads, but safety comes first. Life is not a testing ground, don't gamble with lives. Chenglong Truck reminds you: drive safely and follow traffic rules."

Just yesterday, all three parties involved - Li Auto, China Automotive Technology and Research Center (CATARC), and Chenglong Truck - issued statements. However, Chenglong Truck did not mention Li Auto by name in their statement, instead referring to it as "a certain automotive brand."

Additionally, Li Auto executives called on Chenglong Truck for a "collision retest" yesterday. Notably, Chenglong Truck did not respond directly to this challenge. Instead, they launched a livestream with giveaway activities, asking viewers for follows to capitalize on the traffic. The livestream attracted over 20,000 concurrent viewers.
