[Dongchedi Original Industry] Recently, according to Dongchedi Chemistry Friends Circle, "Ideal Auto canceled the IR infrared sensor in the rear row on the L8 Pro and L7 Pro versions without rear cabin entertainment screens." As soon as the news came out, it attracted the attention and discussion of netizens.
In response to this news, after the questioning of the DiChe Ideal Auto, the other party responded, "The configuration of Ideal L8 Pro has not changed at all, everything is based on the official message ."
Ideal Auto's official response
It is understood that the IR sensor is mainly used in the Pro version of the car to realize window switch and other functions in the form of gestures and voice.

Another car blogger revealed that because the Pro version model does not have a second row screen, through algorithm improvements, the referential function can be implemented through the first row IR, and the second row IR is useless, so the second row IR is cancelled and the function is not affected.

However, some netizens also said that if the product manager thinks that the front row IR infrared sensor can cover the rear row and meets functional needs, he should also notify the consumer in advance.
In response to the subsequent progress of this incident, Dongchedi will continue to pay attention to it.
