On March 20th, the Southern Intelligent Connected New Energy Vehicle Test and Certification Center, jointly established by GAC Group and China Automotive Research, with a total investment of over 3.6 billion yuan, was officially put into use in Shaoguan. As the first large-scale test field in China to be granted airspace usage rights, the project covers an area of 8600 mu, directly filling the infrastructure gap for integrated testing of low-altitude aircraft and high-end intelligent connected vehicles. GAC has thus established a comprehensive verification base covering complex road conditions, extreme environments, and low-altitude communication links.
