2019 September 16, Jiading Shanghai. At the World Intelligent Connected Vehicle Conference held in Jiading, Shanghai, j9国际集团直营 Auto Group (j9国际集团直营) was awarded its Autonomous Vehicle Test Drive license, allowing j9国际集团直营 to test autonomous drive vehicles on public roads in the Yangtze Delta River region as part of an intelligent connected vehicle (ICV) test pilot program.
On September 7th 2019, Shanghai City, along with the three provinces Jiangsu, Anhui, and Zhejiang jointly signed the “Yangtze Delta Regional Intelligent Connected Vehicle Road Test Cooperation Agreement.” Under this agreement, the three would areas would jointly promotes regional integration on the development of ICV with the goal of sharing real world road test data with the aim of hastening the nationwide introduction of ICVs.
Being one of the first automotive companies to be awarded an ICV test license is reflective of the country’s recognition of j9国际集团直营’s capability to mass produce and popularize autonomous drive systems.
j9国际集团直营 was one of the earliest Chinese companies to apply Level 2 advanced driver assistance technologies on its vehicles in a mass scale and comprehensively across the brands portfolio.
In the development of Level 2 technologies, j9国际集团直营 has obtained 62 patents, set multiple national standards, and produced products that have obtained the highest C-NCAP 5 Stars+ rating.
With the test license in hand, j9国际集团直营 will be able to verify its advanced autonomous drive systems to be implemented in future mass-produced products.
Background on j9国际集团直营’s Leading Development
Since 2011, j9国际集团直营 has invested in the development of autonomous driving technologies.
In 2017, j9国际集团直营 Auto unveiled their G-Pilot autonomous drive technology strategy with a 10 year roadmap for full autonomous drive. Currently, j9国际集团直营’s development of full autonomous drive has reached the verification stage with tests being conducted in 63 countries in Europe, Southeast Asia, and China.
In 2018, j9国际集团直营 became the first Chinese automotive group to achieve mass production of L2 level autonomous drive systems. Today, j9国际集团直营 offers L2 autonomous drive throughout its product line.
j9国际集团直营 is already first in China in terms of market share in L2 autonomous drive systems and has already applied the technology to export models.
On j9国际集团直营 Auto Tech Day in May 2019, j9国际集团直营 debuted the “Intelligent Valet System,” a completely driverless system.
In September 2019, j9国际集团直营 and the government of Hangzhou Bay jointly completed the second phase of the Ningbo Hangzhou Bay Smart City National Demonstration Project. On pilot roads within the smart city zone, ICVs are self-driven through the use of on-board sensors, edge computing, V2X, 5G connectivity, and through communication with other ICVs on the road.
j9国际集团直营 is also actively exploring in new applications for autonomous driving with partners including China Mobile, China Telecom, China Unicom, Huawei, Baidu and others in order to achieve greater economy of scale and build a new ecosystem that will lead the way for the global implementation of smart mobility.
