The symposium on intelligent driving development strategy and trends commenced in Wuhan Economic & Technological Development Zone (WEDZ) on July 26.

Organized by the China EV100, the event brought together representatives from leading vehicle manufacturers and intelligent driving solution providers, including Dongfeng Motor Corporation, Lantu Motors, Changan Automobile, Leapmotor, Geely Auto, Horizon Robotics, and Black Sesame Technologies, as well as officials from industry regulatory bodies.

The participants engaged in in-depth discussions and exchanges on the development strategy and trends in intelligent driving.

Zhang Yongwei, vice chairman of the China EV100, highlighted that the intelligent driving sector is undergoing profound changes and is poised to achieve rapid development over the next three years. He emphasized the need to seize opportunities, step up development efforts, and promptly adjust technical and R&D strategies.

Zhang called for the sharing of computing power and data, the establishment of relevant laws and industry standards, and the acceleration of new technology R&D and applications to propel China into a leading position in the intelligent driving field.

Li Shitao, director of the Wuhan Municipal Bureau of Economy and Information Technology, pointed out that the automotive industry is Wuhan's largest pillar industry. In recent years, to adapt to new trends in the automotive industry, Wuhan has actively promoted the transformation and upgrading of the automotive sector, integrating it with artificial intelligence, big data, and industrial digitalization, leading to the accelerated development of the intelligent and connected vehicle industry.

Li encouraged the guests to contribute their wisdom and insights to help Wuhan accelerate its progress in the intelligent driving sector.

Representatives from Lantu Motors, the Dongfeng Motor Corporation Research and Development Center, and other companies shared their views on intelligent driving development models, industrial chain collaboration, data collection and application regulation, and other related issues. They discussed breakthroughs in technology, ecosystem optimization, and the strengthening of application innovation to plan for the future.

Wang Junjun, CTO of Lantu Motors, stated that under new technological trends, platform collaboration is becoming increasingly prevalent. Intelligent driving enterprises will build more unified platforms to achieve real-time data sharing, rapid technology iteration, and collaborative product development.

Li Honglin, chief engineer at the Software Engineering Research Center of Dongfeng Motor Corporation R&D Center, emphasized that the ultimate goal of end-to-end autonomous driving, whether rule-based or data-driven, is to provide excellent products and a positive driving experience for users.

The China EV100 will continue to focus on key areas such as intelligent cockpits and vehicle-road-cloud integration, organizing symposiums to provide strategic advice for industrial development.
