BYD Is Assuming Financial Liability If You Crash While Using Its Self-Driving Tech

BYD said it will cover financial losses from crashes involving its Urban Navigate on Autopilot feature in China.

The coverage includes vehicle repairs, third-party property damage, and injury costs.

Liability protection applies for up to one year after delivery or system upgrade on God’s Eye 5.0.

The move underscores BYD’s confidence in its driver-assistance tech and China’s different approach to self-driving liability.
