Cars are no longer vehicles in the traditional sense, but more like large mobile intelligent terminals, energy storage units, and mobile multi-functional spaces. With the deep integration of intelligent connected cars, intelligent transportation and smart cities, a new ecosystem for the automotive industry is taking shape.
The reporter learned from the 2020 World Intelligent Connected Vehicle Conference held recently that by 2025, the market share of PA (partial autonomous driving) and CA (conditional autonomous driving) level intelligent connected vehicles will exceed 50%, and HA ( Highly autonomous driving)-level intelligent connected cars will achieve limited area and specific commercial applications. So, what route will cars take to expand their "circle of friends" in the next 10 years? Benefiting from the new generation of information technology, how will people, cars, and roads collaborate to bring about epoch-making industrial changes? Experts and scholars at the meeting gave exciting insights answer.
Smart car
Transform into a large mobile smart terminal
A Shanxi heavy-duty truck with a body height of 3 meters made a "flexible" turn outside the New International Exhibition Hall. A huge control screen in front of the driver replaced the steering wheel, handing over the driving system to the vehicle itself; BAIC New energy self-driving vehicles were put into storage accurately; Meituan’s self-driving logistics vehicle encountered people crossing the road and stopped the car steadily... During the 2020 World Intelligent and Connected Vehicles Conference, various people gathered outside the venue Intelligent transportation that realizes autonomous driving.
With the continuous upgrading of automotive software algorithms, chip hardware, and system frameworks, technologies such as autonomous driving and Internet of Vehicles are constantly driving the automotive industry from mechanization to electronics and intelligence, and people’s daily travels such as private cars and public transportation are All means of transportation, from distribution and logistics vehicles to road freight, are all facing unprecedented transformation and upgrading.
In the view of Jiang Deyi, Secretary of the Party Committee and Chairman of BAIC Group, China’s intelligent connected car industry presents a development trend of “one far, one close”; “one fast, one stable”. One far: the development of intelligent connected cars The space continues to expand, and a broad vision for the future has been outlined. From multiple dimensions such as policy and capital, almost all vehicle companies that continue to be booming in domestic and foreign capital markets have brought huge imagination space to users and the market in the field of intelligent connectivity, subverting the pricing and valuation logic of traditional car companies. Yijin: Some application scenarios of intelligent connected cars are within reach. In September this year, Beijing announced the construction of the world's first high-level self-driving demonstration zone; in October, self-driving taxis were tested and operated in limited areas in Beijing. The seemingly distant future travel scenarios have quietly come to users. Yikuai: In the process of rapid recovery of domestic car companies from the trough in recent years, the penetration rate of complete vehicles equipped with smart functions has increased rapidly, and all independent brands have introduced smart cockpits, smart interconnection, etc. as standard features of new cars to the market. Stable: Intelligent technology is making progress with technological breakthroughs and cost reductions around perception, decision-making, and execution, and is getting closer to the threshold of large-scale application. The regulations, standards and supporting infrastructure for connected car-connected autonomous driving are gradually improving.
It is not difficult to see that the relationship between people and cars has become inseparable. Zhu Ronghua, chairman of Changan Automobile, said that as the trend of intelligent network connection continues to deepen, software technology and intelligent technology are giving birth to a new automobile industry. Cars are no longer transportation in the traditional sense, but large-scale mobile intelligent terminals. , energy storage units and mobile multifunctional spaces.
