Autonomous driving and artificial intelligence are the buzzwords at this week’s Guangzhou Auto Show, the last big gathering of Chinese automakers this year.
Elon Musk’s Tesla aims to market as fully self-driving to china Pending regulatory approval in the first quarter of next year, the domestic electric car maker will offer customers advanced driving assistance services that will allow them to navigate highways and congested city streets if they are not already available. It is said that it will be available soon.
Last week, Xiaomi Chairman Lei Jun conducted a “parking lot to parking lot” livestream test drive of the SU7 EV. The feature, which will be piloted with a select group of owners and media, is inspired by Tesla’s FSD end-to-end technology, and instead of relying on engineers to code rules, it Make driving decisions in real-time using AI models at scale. Ray said it’s to simulate driving.
“Parking lot to parking lot means driving smart the entire way from the parking lot to the destination parking lot,” Ray said during the livestream. “This technology is magic. It is also the most advanced technology in driver assistance today. Tesla first launched it in the US in January. Our Chinese peers are all trying to catch up to this new frontier. “Xiaomi is in a relatively leading position in this field,” he said.
Although questions remain about the safety and reliability of driver assistance systems, lawsuits and US federal investigations into Tesla’s Autopilot and FSD systems have led many in the industry to look to self-driving technology as the future of mobility. We are betting on it, and we are competing to make it happen. Stay ahead of your competitors in this area.
In fact, Musk is betting Tesla’s future on solving self-driving cars. He unveiled a prototype last month cyber cabHowever, he admitted that production of robotaxis, which have no steering wheel or pedals, will likely start production in 2026 at the earliest.
Geely’s luxury EV brand Zeekr will also use the Guangzhou show to unveil version 2.0 of its smart driving solution, including end-to-end technology, and plans to roll out urban navigation nationwide by the end of the year. EV manufacturers are also considering releasing ADAS technology to the global market in the future.
Chen Qi, who joined Zeekr in 2021 after leading Huawei’s self-driving division, said Tesla’s FSD will put pressure on Chinese EV makers but is good because it will foster more competition and innovation. He said it was true. He also said that China’s domestically produced engineers are more than capable of producing superior technology.
“China’s talent in algorithms and software is richer than in some other countries,” Chen said. “If you look at companies around the world that are working on intelligent driving, Tesla is the most advanced outside of China.”
“And China has unique road conditions and regulatory requirements, so even if Tesla enters the market next year, it may not be able to adapt quickly.”
Jidu Auto (also known as Jiyue in China), a joint venture between search giants Baidu and Geely, is pushing the envelope and applying AI to its electric hypercar, RoboX. did. The racer can accelerate from 0 to 100,000 km/h in just 1.9 seconds and has a range of 650 kilometers (403 miles) on a single charge.
Pricing has not yet been determined, but customers can place orders with a deposit of 49,999 yuan ($6,900).
“Robo Ta. weekend.
Automakers including Xiaopeng, Li Auto and Great Wall Motors unveiled their latest intelligent driving products at the show, which runs until November 24 in Guangzhou.
“More speed, higher precision, better electrical output efficiency, better aerodynamics and driving balance,” Wu said. “AI improves every function in the car.”
