How leading Chinese carmakers, Tier-1s and new-entrants, including tech giants Baidu, Huawei etc., plan to overcome the challenges and commercialize autonomous driving
About the availability of key ADAS features, such as Level 0 TSR, Level 1 AEB, ACC, and LKA, and Level 2 Traffic Jam Assist, Park Assist and Level 3 in China's leading domestic carmakers?

An increasing number of Chinese carmakers collaborate with domestic tech giants in order to develop intelligent pure-electric platforms; BAIC with its premium smart-EV brand Arcfox, Dongfeng with Voyah, GWM with ORA and SAIC with IM; among others. The models offered under the newly established premium EV brands, aim to combine high electric range, robust infotainment in-vehicle systems and autonomous driving capabilities beyond Lv.2.

Driven by its ambition to transform from a production-based to an innovative economy, China has flourishing expectations about its NEVs sector and a vast amount of private-venture capital to invest. At the same time, China realizes that it will not catch up with Western manufacturers in terms of the technology required for higher levels of autonomy.

For example, its lack in the infrastructure-related with vital aspects of mapping or embedded software development.

This forces China to adopt a mixed model of AD development that combines conditional autonomous driving technologies (i.e. Lv.2.5) and robust in-vehicle connected infotainment products; with higher levels of autonomy (i.e. Lv.4) concentrating only in smart-mobility segments; i.e. robotaxis, ride-hailing services, public transportation sector etc.

Chinese tech giants, like Baidu, Huawei, Alibaba and Tencent aim to leverage their experience in software and hardware integration in order to gain a "built-in" competitive advantage in applying smart technologies in newly launched ICV models. Besides valuable gains from the vast amounts of generated data, ICVs deployment could be tech giant's first step in order to leverage their smart-tech knowledge in the next generation of autonomous vehicles.

Indeed, there is already strong collaboration between Chinese carmakers and tech companies.

Alibaba's high-precision maps embedded in AutoX and XPeng smart-driving pilots,
Baidu's Xiaodu in-car OS embedded in Chery's premium SUV brand Exeed,
GAC's ADiGO driving assistant package enhanced with Baidu's cloud computing and intelligent digital marketing solutions,
Huawei Lidar technology integrated into newly BAIC's Arcfox S,
Huawei's new-generation Balong 5000 5G chipset that enables GAC's new energy vehicles 5G and V2X communication modules;
Tencent SoC that has been successfully integrated into several Geely models;

China accelerates efforts to establish a cross-cutting, ecosystem-centric, regulation framework for ICV' deployment

China promotes an ecosystem-centric coordination approach among all regulatory departments, particularly across different spheres of responsibilities, regions and levels of administration; to forestall the legal and liability issues related to ICVs usage and gradually enable their mass deployment.

In Feb.2020, China's National Development and Reform Commission, the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology and nine other ministries jointly issued the Innovative Development Strategy of Intelligent Vehicles, an ecosystem-centric regulatory approach that aims to establish a sustainable and comprehensive framework for AV development over the next three decades.

The policy document proposes that by 2025:

The regulation standards underpinning smart vehicle technology innovation, cybersecurity and AV industry ecosystem will be formed;
the capacity of the country's digital infrastructure, regarding the wireless networks for the full deployment of LTE-V2X and 5G-V2X technologies, will be enhanced; and the large-scale production of vehicles capable of conditional autonomous driving (i.e. L3) as well as the commercialization of highly autonomous vehicles (i.e. L.4) in certain circumstances, will be realized.

Earlier this year China's public authorities have issued the Standards for Road Testing and Demonstration Application of Intelligent Connected Vehicles; a draft regulatory framework that would allow for "road testing and example application of smart connected vehicles", with China's public highways permitted as a test-site. The draft also aims to support cargo and passenger transportation via autonomous driving vehicles and promote car-sharing and smart-parking business models on a national scale.
