In the same month, the monthly delivery of new cars by Xiaopeng, Ideal, Weilai and Nezha Automobile, the new forces of head car manufacturing, all exceeded 10,000 units.
This year, the leading car companies in the field of intelligence are scrambling to launch the pilot assistance driving system, which is expected to become the standard on smart cars in the next 2-3 years.
Just this week, Tesla CEO Elon Musk was once again on the cover of Time magazine and was named "Person of the Year 2021."
With the blessing of intelligent technology and digitalization, traditional car companies have entered the field of intelligent cars, and the tides that have taken the lead in stepping on the wind continue to expand their territory, and the competition for intelligent car technology is in full swing.
