Harmony Intelligent Mobility Responds to Controversy Over Human Trapping by Seats in the Luxeed S9
[Technical Response] Harmony Intelligent Mobility issued a statement regarding viral videos showing the Luxeed S9's 'zero-gravity' seats allegedly trapping individuals, explaining that the system includes anti-pinch functionality but the force threshold required to trigger it was not reached.
Core Update: Multiple Protective Mechanisms Are Built-in, Yet Rely on User Confirmation and Occupancy Detection
The Luxeed S9 passenger seat will not recline when an occupancy signal or seat belt insertion is detected. Activating zero-gravity mode via voice command requires secondary confirmation, and the process can be immediately halted by pressing a physical button.
Key Data: Anti-Pinch Functionality Depends on Force Threshold Activation
Official technical verification indicates that in the widely circulated video, the child’s position did not reach the force threshold necessary to activate the anti-pinch response, so the system did not automatically retract. All Harmony Intelligent Mobility vehicles equipped with zero-gravity seats support real-time force sensing and automatic retraction protection.
Safety Reminder: Manual Supervision Required During Use
Despite multiple safety safeguards, the manufacturer emphasizes that users must ensure the seat area is free of occupants or obstacles during operation, and exercise particular caution when using automatic adjustment features in environments where children are present.
