Huawei and BAIC developing new smart cars, could launch in 2024

Huawei and BAIC are jointly working on new smart cars that may launch by 2024. However, the latest development involves some new pinches and twists that will change the entire automation of smart vehicles.

According to the latest information, BAIC automobile company will follow Huawei’s smart selection mode for vehicles. A good example of this mode is AITO smart cars. Thereafter, it will sell these intelligent vehicles in Huawei Stores.

Further, the new smart cars will use the old Jihu platform as their base systems. But its logo will not be in use anymore. For your information, Jihu is the first car brand of BAIC equipped with Huawei HI solution.

As usual, Huawei will provide smart car solutions such as intelligent control systems, HarmonyOS smart cockpit, and more to the new BAIC smart cars and could launch them by early 2024 in its official stores.

Why a sudden change in car development?

So far, BAIC cooperation used to build cars while Huawei offers smart solutions for better performance. Both cooperations unveiled the Jihu Alpha S HI automobile in 2021 with a new HI solution.

However, the respective solution didn’t prove useful for the car. Moreover, the Alpha S HI sale also failed to meet expectations. Hence, both parties decided to revamp the development process for their smart cars.

In the latest edition, BAIC is planning to build its vehicles under Huawei smart selection mode. Eventually, this will help to improve the casting, layout, as well as performance efficiency of the smart vehicles.

On the other hand, BAIC will sell its new smart cars in official Huawei stores to maintain the marketing strategy for its products. As a result, the overall changes could enhance the growth of BAIC smart cars in the market.

For the moment, the Huawei-BAIC project is at the approval stage. It would be worth seeing what the Chinese tech maker will implement in the upcoming smart vehicles.
