Beijing – Chinese electric car giant Byd Everything goes to help the driver with the help of Deepsek, after he has previously taken a cautious approach to autonomous driving technology.
The Advanced Smart Drive will become a standard security feature similar to security belts and air pillows, said BYD founder, and President Wang Chuanfu on Monday, at the event launched in China.
The car manufacturer has announced that he posts the “Dipilot” driving system in driving through his car range, which includes a low -budget vehicle of 69,800 Juan ($ 9.555).
Because of this, BYD is probably the first car manufacturer in China to offer such advanced driver’s capabilities for a vehicle below 70,000 yuan, Nomura said analysts in a note on Tuesday. “BYD changes its competition strategy from the reduction of prices last year to the upgrade of functions 2025,” analysts said.
Byd also said he integrated artificial intelligence from Chinese startup Deepseek In at least the most advanced version of the new driver’s help system. Such systems use a combination of software, AI and cameras or other vehicle control sensors, a minimizing need for human intervention.
“Deepseek integration is very significant,” said LE, founder and director of last Auto Insights, “because there is now a domestic solo AI technology that Byd can work with to offer equivalent intelligent features offered by their competitors.”
“That byd firmly returns to the driver’s seat dictating the pace of” technological features, he said, noting that the company had previously lagged behind the Chinese competitors.
More than two years ago, Chinese car manufacturers began to offer features to help the driver as a way to stand out in the Chinese competitive electric car market. But byd management told investors in March 2023 that when it came to “smart ride”, it was difficult to determine Liability in the event of an accident involving autonomous vehicles. But they noticed that advanced auxiliary technology had the potential to improve overall security.
On Monday, byd said that so -called smart vehicles can improve road safety by monitoring road conditions and avoiding danger, while big data and AI models will improve technology over time.
More than 20 models with BYD’s new driver technology were launched on Monday. The car manufacturer, which spreads rapidly abroad, said nothing about global availability.
Tesla still awaits approval
The driver-aid in China faced regulatory limitations, although an increasing number of local authorities allowed more cars to use driving software on the congested city streets.
Chinese startup Xpeng was an early initiator, first threw out the driver for an urban road in Guangzhou Hometown in September 2022Before early 2023. extend to Shenzhen and Shanghai. By February 2024Xpeng said that feature is usable in most China. Mass Mark Mona launched its own First car in August with some options to help the driver.
Competitive cars from Li Auto, Huawei Partners, Nio and Xiaomi claim to offer some functions to help the driver, such as automatic parking. Several car manufacturers use Nvidia cars for cars.
TeslaThe most advanced version of the driver’s help, called “full ride”, is yet to obtain the approval of Beijing despite the repeated statements of Elon Musk could be available in ChinaAs soon as the end of 2024 was in the invitation of earnings in January, Musk attributed the delay to us and the Chinese limitations that prevent Tesla from quickly developing a locally harmonized version of the driver’s help software.
Although Deepseek integration improves Bed competitive advantage, Brian Tycangco, analyst from Stsberry Research, warned that cooperation “increases the likelihood that ByD vehicles would face more difficulties by entering Western markets such as USA for national security reasons.”
