Great Wall Motors and Huawei sign a strategic cooperation agreement to promote the innovative development of smart cars

Great Wall Motor Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as "Great Wall Motor") and Huawei Technologies Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as "Huawei") officially signed a strategic cooperation agreement in Shenzhen. The two parties will cooperate in innovative technology fields such as intelligent networking, intelligent driving, smart cockpit, cloud services, and travel services.

This is not the first cooperation between Great Wall Motors and Huawei. In March last year, the 5G-based automatic remote driving technology jointly developed by Great Wall Motors, Huawei and China Mobile passed the test at the Great Wall Motors Xushui test track, achieving a millisecond-level vehicle response delay. In July this year, Great Wall Motors also signed an ecological cooperation agreement with eight technology, Internet and communications industry giants including Huawei, and further cooperated with Huawei on vehicle intelligence, cloud services and big data.

With the accelerated commercialization of 5G and AI, the automotive industry is ushering in the fourth industrial revolution. Facing the "new four modernizations" of intelligence, networking, cleanliness, and sharing, Great Wall Motors is actively open and constantly innovating to pave the way for the development of the new four modernizations of automobiles. The strategic cooperation between Great Wall Motors and Huawei is based on the development trend of future intelligent and connected vehicles, and has made advance planning and in-depth layout in related innovative technology fields.

At present, Great Wall Motors has taken the lead in developing key technologies such as 5G, autonomous driving, and V2X in the field of intelligent networking. The cooperation between Great Wall Motors and Huawei in many innovative technology fields such as intelligent networked vehicles, big data, and cloud platforms has further clarified the common vision of both parties to jointly promote the rapid development of intelligent networked vehicles.

On July 15 this year, Great Wall Motors also signed an ecological cooperation agreement with eight technology, Internet and communications industry giants including Huawei, and promoted a comprehensive partnership with Huawei around vehicle intelligence, cloud services and big data. Through cross-border cooperation and resource complementarity, the company aims to become a leader in the AI ​​travel era, helping the automotive industry bid farewell to the era of traditional functional vehicles and usher in the era of travel robots.

In fact, like other car companies, Great Wall Motors has also made arrangements in the field of intelligent networking in the era of automobile intelligence. As early as 2009, Great Wall Motors began researching autonomous driving technology and demonstrated L3 autonomous driving technology to the public for the first time in 2015. In early 2017, Great Wall Motors released the "i-Pilot Intelligent Navigation" autonomous driving system jointly developed by China, the United States and India.

In addition, at the end of 2018, Great Wall Motors' "National Intelligent Vehicle and Intelligent Transportation (Beijing-Hebei) Demonstration Zone" was officially put into operation. The demonstration zone covers an area of ​​134,000 square meters and mainly carries out multiple application demonstrations including intelligent driving, intelligent road network, new energy vehicles, shared travel, etc. By cooperating with Huawei again this time, Great Wall Motors hopes to promote the mass production of technologies in the fields of intelligent driving, intelligent networking, and intelligent cockpits.
