Chery cooperates with Huawei to deepen the intellectual S7′ s first launch with Huawei’s visual intelligent driving scheme.
On April 11th, at the ecological spring communication meeting in HarmonyOS, Yu Chengdong, managing director of Huawei, BG CEO, chairman of BU, a Huawei smart car solution, and Yin Tongyue, secretary of the Party Committee and chairman of Chery Holding Group Co., Ltd., released the first smart car, Zhijie S7. Yu Chengdong said: "Zhijie S7 has now started mass delivery."
It is understood that Zhijie S7 is positioned as a medium-sized and large-sized pure electric car, which is the only car model currently on sale in HarmonyOS Zhixing, and it is also the first smart car model jointly selected by Chery and Huawei.
The reporter observed that one of the main competitiveness of Zhijie S7 is reflected in intelligent driving. The new car is equipped with Huawei’s technologies or functions such as Huawei ADS2.0 advanced intelligent driving system, a new generation of HUAWEI DriveONE power platform, Huawei Turing intelligent chassis and HUAWEI xMotion intelligent body collaborative control system.
"At present, Zhijie S7 can enjoy the full upgrade of NCA in Huawei’s high-level intelligent driving city." Yu Chengdong bluntly said that Zhijie S7 is equipped with 192 lines of the same paragraph as Wenjie M9., with the longest detection distance of 250m, which is 20% higher than the industry average.
It is worth mentioning that, together with the new intelligent S7, there is the basic version of Huawei Visual Intelligent Driving HUAWEI ADS. This also means that Huawei has adopted a pure visual autopilot scheme for the first time, that is, it does not rely on it and lowers the threshold for intelligent driving.
As we all know,As a unique existence in the global automobile factory, it has always adhered to the pure vision autopilot scheme. Yu Chengdong said that HUAWEI ADS equipped with Zhijie S7 has realized "driving with a road", and compared with the pure vision scheme, the coverage rate of Huawei’s vision intelligent driving scheme reached 99.5%. This also means that Huawei has become the first intelligent driving manufacturer in China to adopt a pure vision scheme, which has challenged the new FSD autopilot scheme.
In fact, as early as November 9 last year, Zhijie S7 was listed for the first time. By November 28, the booking volume exceeded 20,000, and the sales volume once triggered market expectations. However, due to the rhythm of mass production, the monthly delivery volume of this model was less than 1,000 vehicles after it was launched, and HarmonyOS Zhixing subsequently introduced the compensation scheme of delayed delivery of Zhijie S7 to maintain the order. At the same time, in view of the delay in the delivery of the intellectual community and the slow opening of intelligence, the market has also aroused doubts about the cooperation between Chery and Huawei.
In this regard, at the China Electric Vehicle committee of 100 Forum held in March this year, Yu Chengdong responded for the first time, because the shortage of chips and the relocation of factories delayed mass production and listing. "It is expected to return to normal in April."
At the press conference, Yin Tongyue also said that Zhijie is Chery’s "most important project", with an independent business department and an exclusive intelligent manufacturing industrial park. Chery also provided special resources for Zhijie project. Huawei’s technology and standards deeply empower intelligent manufacturing, and Zhijie S7 has passed nearly 10,000 tests. "We regard the cooperation with Huawei as the first strategy and the intellectual community as the first priority project."
"Huawei has always been more than just changing lanes and overtaking. It is also good at launching a frontal attack against the peak technology of the industry." Gao Chao, a researcher of China Autopilot Industry Innovation Alliance, believes that every core functional section is leading in today’s industry, from Turing intelligent chassis to advanced intelligent driving and then to HarmonyOS 4 intelligent cockpit. Under the model of HarmonyOS Zhixing, Huawei is gradually achieving the goal of empowering car companies to build good cars by virtue of its accumulation in ICT (Information and Communication Technology) for more than 30 years and rich ecological advantages.
