From "transportation tools" to "smart space", the electrification and intelligence-driven transformation and upgrade of the automotive industry.

According to the data from the Ministry of Public Security, as of the end of June 2025, the national stock of new energy vehicles has reached 36.89 million. The emergence of smart connected vehicles is bringing new possibilities to many people's work and life. Consequently, many topics related to cars also require new answers in this era. One of them is how to define a country's industrialization level using cars. "The popularity of cars is a symbol of a country's industrialization" - this is almost a consensus in the industrial field. Traditional fuel vehicles have mature research and manufacturing systems, with many car companies focusing on breaking through "engine technology" as a representation of their technical level. In this context, some new players in the automotive industry were initially not highly regarded. Nowadays, the market landscape has reversed. New energy vehicles, with their motor-driven mode, have achieved the same or even better level of power output in terms of "zero-to-hundred acceleration" compared to traditional fuel vehicles. It is worth noting that new energy vehicles are equipped with more and more intelligent assistance functions, changing people's traditional perception of cars and giving rise to new demands - in addition to battery range, people are also focused on intelligent driving assistance, intelligent cockpit interactive experience, and lifestyle services.
