Qiankun ADS 3.0:

The third-gen autonomous driving solution comes with various advanced capabilities. It brings more human-like but better and safer assistance that makes the driving experience more efficient. It relies on the forward + lateral + rearward collision avoidance protocol. Even if you accidentally accelerate, your car won’t harm anyone.

Other features of ADS 3.0 count remote parking that offers brilliant driving and navigation assistance. The feature responds precisely even in complex turning or parking points. For instance, gates, narrow paths, U-turns, and other situations.

Users can even leave the car and it will automatically park itself using the car computer. Voice commands and quick controls are also present in the ADS 3.0.

New Partners:

BYD and Huawei’s partnership reflects the growing demand for smart and efficient car solutions in the automobile markets. Several brands are working on advanced techs that can help them rival their competitors and pace ahead in the automobile race.

Apart from BYD, tech giants like Audi are also planning to adopt Huawei ADS 3.0 solutions. Thus, Huawei is taking new and significant steps to expand its smart car solutions business in the home ground.
