In terms of car-to-car interconnection, Coffee OS 3 is equipped with Coffee Link, which can be adapted to Huawei , Xiaomi, Redmi, OPPO , vivo, realme, iQOO, OnePlus 8 major mobile phone brands, covering 95% of domestic mobile phone users in the market. If it is the first time to connect the car, just bring the phone close to the car screen and the connection will be automatically initiated without downloading any apps.


In terms of human-computer interaction , Coffee OS 3 is equipped with Coffee Air Touch, the world's first spatial perception gesture interaction technology based on IR infrared sensors . Users in the back seat and the front passenger seat can complete air operations on the screen through gestures such as single click, double click, slide, pinch, and long press.


In terms of comfort, "refrigerator, color TV, and large sofa" open up a new mode of cabin comfort.


Currently, many models of brands such as Ideal, Nezha, Leapmotor, Zeekr, Xiaomi, Wenjie, Weipai, and Dongfeng have been deployed.


In terms of car refrigerators, they are developing from high-end to standard configuration, from small capacity to large capacity, from single door to double door, from refrigeration to dual use. At the same time, technologies and functions such as car-machine interconnection, voice control , reminder of belongings, 24-hour constant temperature when leaving the car, and independent compressors are also quietly being installed in cars.


In May 2024, Weipai New Energy Coffee series models will usher in OTA, the iterative upgraded 2.0 version of Coffee Life, which can control smart peripherals such as car refrigerators and smart water cups through the central control.

At the same time, in order to meet the needs of multiple scenarios, the OEM has launched a variety of car seat modes: folding and laying down to become a large bed in seconds to meet the needs of outdoor camping; rotating to sit facing each other to meet the needs of meetings, etc. Among them, the large bed mode has been applied to many models such as Ideal and Nezha, and the conference mode will soon be mass-produced.


In June 2024, Magna announced that it had received the world's first order for its reconfigurable seat system in China, and plans to start mass production in China in the fourth quarter of 2024 (possibly for the Zeekr MIX model). Features:


The front seats can rotate 270 degrees and the electric slide rails are nearly two meters long, enabling flexible seat layout and expanded cabin space.


Equipped with integrated seat belts and magnetic eco-interface for enhanced safety and functionality.


A variety of application scenarios have been customized for the Chinese market, such as parent-child, long-distance travel, camping, storage, etc.


In terms of safety, active safety features such as driver monitoring and vital signs monitoring are constantly upgraded to ensure the safety of vehicles and personnel.


In January 2024, Nezha X will have its first OTA, adding a new DMS driver status monitoring system, including three functions: fatigue driving reminder, distracted driving reminder, and Bluetooth call control. When the vehicle speed is greater than 10km/h, if the owner yawns, closes his eyes for a long time, or drives continuously for more than 4 hours, the system will trigger a fatigue driving reminder; at the same time, when the vehicle speed is greater than 30km/h, if the owner is distracted for a long time or makes a phone call with his hand, the system will trigger a distracted driving reminder to avoid accidents.


To avoid distraction from incoming calls, Nezha X has also added a Bluetooth call control function. The owner can answer or hang up the Bluetooth call by nodding or shaking his head, thereby reducing the interference of incoming calls on the driving process.


In June 2024, the 2025 VOYAH FREE 318 was launched, equipped with a driver monitoring system and a vital signs monitoring system, with two major upgrades for rear-seat safety.


The first is the child (pet) safety monitoring function. The new car is equipped with a smart monitoring space that can monitor the status of children in the back row in real time. If an abnormal situation occurs, the system will actively warn the driver and prompt the driver to open the back door through voice and text on the central control screen. In addition, the driver and the co-driver can also use the exclusive camera to check the situation in the back row in real time to ensure the safety of children during driving.


The second is a reminder for children (pets) left behind after leaving the car. After the vehicle is turned off and locked, if a child is detected to be left in the car, a message will be automatically sent through the remote mobile phone APP to remind the user, eliminating the troubles of families with children during travel.


C-NCAP (2024 edition) will be officially implemented on July 1, 2024, and the Child Presence Detection (CPD) function will be listed. Influenced by this, more new cars will add rear-seat child monitoring and other functions in the future to ensure cabin safety.
