Chinese EV Brand IM L7 went viral on Douyin because a driver in Linyi drove it as a submarine during flooding

中国电动汽车在水中行进的视频疯传，山东临沂的一名司机这是把电动汽车当作潜艇开

山东临沂遭遇猛烈暴雨，道路积水严重，一电动车竟在众人瞩目中变身“路面潜艇”，引发网友热议：纷纷感到新奇有趣！

以下是各国网民的评论：

I'm not convinced that this is not a market gimmick. I never heard of IM L7 before but now everyone is searching for it on Douyin

我不相信这不是市场噱头。我以前从来没有听说过智己 L7，现在每个人都在网上搜索

This is pretty impressive but I’ll be REALLY impressed if it still works normally 2 weeks later

令人震撼啊，如果两周后这车仍然可以正常驾驶，我就更佩服了

Electric vehicles are very simple, a huge battery and an electric motor, neither of them needs air to work and if they are hermetically sealed, they will continue to work without a problem.

电动汽车非常简单，不就是一个大的电池和一个电动机，工作时候都不需要空气，如果是密封的，继续工作，没有问题的。

I had heard that Electric cars are being used in the US for Boat owners due to their ability to go much deeper into water without stalling. A gas motor will stall if the water covers the tailpipe.

我听说电动汽车在美国被当做船用，能够在不熄火的情况下深入更深的水中。而如果水淹没了排气尾管，则燃气发动机会失速。

Inside China Auto

You need to watch more Inside China Auto. You'd have heard of it 2 years ago already.

你应当多看一些《中国汽车内幕》。早在两年前就听说过了。

IP68 Rated!

这防水等级是最高的IP68级别

If they seal the battery place very good. EV is better than gas a lot because of this. But most of the time they are not. Battery is toast after that and to replace them cost the same as buying the new one.

电池密封做得好久可以。这方面，电动汽车比汽油好很多。不过其他方面就不然。电池要是不行了，更换电池的成本与购买新电池的成本一样

Lithium should burn and explode if it comes in contact with water...

锂如果与水接触，就会燃烧和爆炸。

Allan Jacob

Drove through the water like it was nothing.

在水中行进，如履平地啊，一点事情都没有

Jim

That's impressive, there is a Ford in the UK where YouTubers film all the cars that stall due to water in their engine 1/3 this depth.

牛逼啊！英国有一位播主拍摄了所有因发动机进水而熄火的汽车，当时水的深度只有这个的1/3。

Lopa

It's also fake chinese propaganda. Real chinese EVs have a nice spontaneous combustion feature

这也是中国宣传。真正的中国电动汽车容易自燃

Hmmm, Australia's in the market for some submarines.

澳大利亚正准备购入一些潜艇呢

Multipolar World

Unfortunately the USA is extorting Australia for their second hand & old submarine technology for $368 billion USD.

Completely like dealing with the Mob.

不幸的是，美国正在勒索澳大利亚，以3680亿美元的价格卖二手的旧潜艇给他们。

Enthusiasm × Sarcasm

This is another benefit from EV cars. They use battery rather than ICE which requires air ingestion. This means it can be used as submarine.

这是电动汽车的另一个优势，使用的是电池，而内燃机需要吸入空气。可以当做潜艇来开。

Its stil a one off try fir emergency, not designed for driving through water, so electrics inside would suffer damage.

这是紧急情况下可用的，不是为在水中行驶而设计的，里面的电器会受到损坏。

the US is committing genocide
did you see that the US auto engineers just went through BYD Seagull - they were blown away by the quality - said they’re not sure US auto makers can compete - China’s EV’a will create an extinction type event

你看到了吗，美国汽车工程师刚刚检测了比亚迪海鸥，质量好到他们惊呆了-说他们不确定美国汽车制造商能否与之竞争

中国的电动汽车将会在全世界掀起一阵狂潮！

the US is committing genocide

Inside China business does a great job on all things US/China as a westerner with Wall St background now living/working in China

在中国内部，各行各业做得很好，我是一个有华尔街背景的西方人，现在在中国生活/工作

The Asian Commentator

That is a well-engineered car.

这车设计得很不错

AGM

I wouldn't recommend it but that's great advertising for the company.

我不推荐，不过这给公司带来了很好的宣传

RoseDuelist

as long as there is decent waterproofing around the electronics all evs should be able to do this, though there's no guarantee they will start again afterwards

只要电子设备的防水做得好，所有电动汽车都能够做到这样，不过不能保证事后能否启动

Thomaz.R

Don’t do it, if one drop of water gets inside the lithium battery the car will burn even underwater.

不要这样做，如果一滴水进入锂电池，汽车甚至会在水下燃烧。

Jusme

Nice. EV's don't need air intake.

不错，电动汽车不需要进气。

k

and the car works??? wow

这样也能跑起来，哇塞！

Mehak Sharma

impressive!

令人震撼

We need these in New Orleans

我们新奥尔良需要这些

I hope that car battery has warranty!

希望汽车电池有保修期！

Meanwhile Indians drives submersible cows...

作为对比，印度人驾驶会潜水的奶牛。

Rich people, very rich!

有钱人啊，真有钱

I'd bet that's a woman driver haha.

我敢打赌，是个女司机

Orga

This is why the US would rather ban Chinese cars than try to compete with them.

看到了吧，现在知道为什么美国宁愿禁止中国汽车，也不愿与它们竞争。

Orga

This is the reason for the 100% tariff. Maybe they need a 200% tariff now

这就是美国队中国电动汽车征收100%关税的原因。看来应该征收200%的关税

Chinese EVs are 10 yrs ahead of Tesla in engineering.

中国电动汽车的做工，领先特斯拉10年。
