DUBLIN, April 7, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- The "Joint Venture Passenger Car Brands' ADAS and Autonomous Driving Report, 2021" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.

Joint venture brands' ADAS research: the installations of L2 ADAS surged by 43.2% year on year

In the first eight months of 2021, 3.87 million passenger cars of joint venture brands in China were equipped with ADAS, a like-on-like jump of 25.4%, with the installation rate up to 49.0%, up 4.9 percentage points. Wherein, the installations and installation rate of L2 ADAS increased by 43.2% and 5.1 percentage points from the same period of the previous year, separately.

Toyota leads L2 ADAS market

In the joint venture brands' L2 ADAS market, Toyota is the only first-echelon player, with the system installations far higher than its peers; Honda, Buick, Volvo and Tesla are in the second echelon.

Toyota's installations of L2 ADAS approached 700,000 units, driven by its hot-selling models like Corolla, Levin, RAV4 and Avalon, nearly 400,000 units more than the runner-up Honda. In terms of sensor solutions, Toyota's L2 ADAS adopted 1R1V and 3R1V solutions, over 90% of which were 1R1V. Volvo boasted an L2 ADAS installation of 95.6% and mainly used 1R1V and 3R1V solutions, of which 1R1V swept over 80%. The third-echelon players, Ford and Volkswagen have the potential to leapfrog to the second echelon.

L3 ADAS of Honda and Mercedes-Benz has been approved for use in cars legally introduced on roads in their local markets

In March 2021, Honda introduced Honda SENSING Elite, an L3 automated driving system first mounted on Honda Legend, the world's first L3 model legally introduced on roads.

This L3 system employs the following sensor solution:

• 1 set of front view stereo cameras
• 4 surround view cameras
• 5 LiDARs (Valeo's second-generation SCALA LiDARs, 16-channel)
• 5 radars

The composition of Honda SENSING Elite is as follows

Honda Legend, the world's first L3 autonomous model legally running on roads, is only available in Japan. Just 100 units have been launched on market for rental, not sold. The MRRP of JPY11 million (approximately RMB660,000) refers to only deposits. There is still no effective way for ordinary users to access L3 automated driving.

In December 2021, Mercedes-Benz DRIVE PILOT, an L3 autonomous driving system captured the approval for driving on roads from the German Federal Motor Transport Authority (KBA). This L3 system mounted on Mercedes-Benz EQS or S-Class will become available on market in 2022, which means ordinary users will use the L3 autonomous driving function on 13,000km highways in Germany as early as the second half of 2022.

The sensor solution for Mercedes-Benz DRIVE PILOT is as follows:

• 1 LiDAR
• 4 angular radars
• 1 long-range forward radar
• 1 set of front view stereo cameras
• 4 surround view cameras
• 12 ultrasonic radars
• 1 wheel camera (working together with the rain sensor on the windshield to perceive whether it is rainy or not)
• 1 rear multi-purpose camera
• HD map
• Driver camera
