New energy vehicles will be the pioneers of the transformation to the intelligent era

Driven by the trend of digitalization, cars are transforming from a mechanized means of transportation to a mobile terminal that is interconnected with various ecosystems. Customers' expectations for the value attributes of cars are no longer limited to getting from point A to point B, but have put forward new demands for the driving experience and value-added services throughout the journey. The mechanical attributes of cars are constantly weakening, while the attributes of consumer electronics as a smart mobile terminal are becoming more and more obvious. In this process, the accelerated product cycle and high degree of softwareization require companies in the automotive industry to change their development model to keep up with the market changes brought about by the digital era.

Empowering enterprises through intelligence and digitalization means that enterprises should not only optimize production processes, but also ensure product quality, technological advancement, excellent services, communication, technical support, etc. in cooperation with automakers and suppliers, and realize intelligent management, such as internal allocation of human and financial resources, and external payment of goods on time according to contract requirements. In technological development and cooperation with automakers and suppliers, enterprises and entrepreneurs in the industrial chain need integrity and contractual spirit, and do their work in accordance with the agreed conditions and requirements. Only in this way can they truly become an important link in the industrial chain and promote the development of the industrial chain. This is also one of the keys to building corporate competitiveness. It is a systematic project for enterprises to take the road of intelligence and digitalization. On this basis, the company will virtualize and cloud-service the intelligent resources of the factory through the introduction of service Internet, and dynamically build collaborative intelligent manufacturing for the entire chain and the entire life cycle according to the personalized needs of customers through interpersonal network interconnection and interaction.

According to the definition of the "Intelligent Connected Vehicle Technology Roadmap" of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, an intelligent connected vehicle is a vehicle equipped with advanced on-board sensors, controllers, actuators and other devices, and integrating modern communication and network technologies to achieve intelligent information exchange and sharing between the vehicle and X (people, vehicles, roads, cloud, etc.), so that the vehicle has complex environment perception, intelligent decision-making and collaborative control functions, can achieve "safe, comfortable, efficient and energy-saving" driving, and ultimately can realize a new generation of vehicles that can replace human operation.

At present, the global automotive industry is in an era of rapid transformation from traditional industry to digital industry. The application of new generation information technology represented by 5G, Internet and artificial intelligence in the automotive industry is promoting the deep integration of related sub-sectors of the automotive industry. "Intelligence and digitalization not only deeply empower the development of the automotive electronics industry, but also change the future direction of the automotive electronics industry. Intelligence, digitalization and informatization are becoming the only way for the transformation and development of the automotive electronics industry.

The three revolutions of new energy vehicles are electrification, low carbonization, and intelligence. Among them, in the intelligent scene, hundreds of millions of electric vehicles will be distributed, and they must be connected by the Internet and blockchain. At the same time, with the development of smart energy, smart transportation, smart travel, and smart cars, cars will become the largest smart terminals. The entry of Internet companies is also an important part of the new revolution in the automotive industry. The automotive industry will be a leading industry, and the future economic structure, lifestyle, and organizational methods of social enterprises will change.

The automobile industry is an important pillar industry of the national economy. As a pioneer in the transformation of the intelligent era and a technical carrier of advanced science and technology, the development of new energy vehicles has always been the focus of people's attention. The intelligent promotion of new energy vehicles is strategic and long-term. The entry of new Internet car-making forces will also inject new energy into the industry. After Apple announced its car-making, major mobile phone manufacturers have entered the market. These companies have brand planning capabilities, capital utilization, sensitivity to forward-looking technologies, and innovative business models that traditional car companies do not have. This will also be recorded in the history of China's automobile development.

With the comprehensive transformation of automobile power sources, production and operation methods, and consumption patterns, the new energy automobile industry ecology is gradually evolving from a "chain relationship" between parts, vehicle R&D, production, and marketing service companies to a "network ecology" involving multiple fields and multiple subjects such as automobiles, energy, transportation, and information and communications. At the same time, cross-industry and cross-field integration and innovation and more open and inclusive international cooperation have become the characteristics of the era of the development of the new energy automobile industry, greatly enhancing and stimulating the industrial development momentum and market vitality, and promoting the formation of a new industrial development pattern of mutual integration, symbiosis, cooperation and win-win.
