Huawei and Seres’s codeveloped AITO has launched its latest sport utility vehicle, whose cutting-edge autonomous driving features are expected to sharpen the SUV’s edge in the new energy vehicle market.
Yu Chengdong, head of Huawei’s smart vehicle business unit, says the new M7 will be able to navigate itself on urban roads and expressways without reliance on high-definition maps.
The new M7 features the second version of Huawei’s autonomous driving system or ADS. Since its launch in April, the system has generated a reservoir of traffic scenarios. For long trips, the system requires one manual intervention per 200 kilometers, and in urban scenarios, it can maneuver into or out of fast-traffic scenarios like “seasoned drivers”, Yu adds.
The new model’s autonomous driving capabilities are helped by the vehicle’s combination of 27 sensors, including rooftop lidar, three millimeter-wave radar assemblies, and 11 high-definition cameras.
Another highlight of the model is that it features a Harmony operating system, which Huawei has developed for its smartphones and other digital devices.
