Tesla Vice President Tao Lin addresses the common misconception regarding high radiation levels in electric vehicles, using the Model 3 as a case in point. The in-car magnetic field intensity of the Model 3 is significantly lower than that of everyday items like electric blankets. Tesla employs advanced technological methods to shield the majority of electromagnetic field energy. Tests conducted by the China Automotive Technology and Research Center have demonstrated that Tesla models exhibit superior electromagnetic radiation levels compared to both fuel vehicles and similar electric vehicles, adhering to both national standards and World Health Organization (WHO) requirements.
Official entities, including the Guangdong Provincial Department of Ecology and Environment and the Jiangsu Provincial Center for Disease Control and Prevention, have also disproved the assertion that "electric vehicle radiation causes cancer," underscoring the safety of radiation emitted by new energy vehicles. National standards mandate that all vehicles must pass Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC) testing, and the actual radiation levels of new energy vehicles are well below the prescribed limits.
