Share Guangzhou’s wisdom and showcase the advantages of Nansha
Guangzhou serves as the permanent venue of the World Intelligent Vehicle Conference thanks to the strength of Guangzhou’s vehicle industry. After more than 20 years of development, Guangzhou has a whole industry chain for complete vehicles, auto parts and supporting facilities, underpinned by automotive electronics, MCU, VCU and BMS of NEVs, autonomous driving solutions, etc. Guangzhou ranks No. 1 in China in terms of automobile output for two consecutive years, bringing glory to the city image of “Guangzhou vehicle ” and contributing to the ICV and NEV industry ecosystem. Guangzhou therefore becomes a highly competitive gathering place for the ICV and NEV industrial chain covering “complete vehicle + auto parts + intelligent connected technology”.
Guangzhou is one of the pilot cities for the coordinated development of smart urban infrastructure and intelligent connected vehicles, and has set many records of firsts in China. Efforts are being made in Guangzhou to promote the research on technologies such as Automated Valet Parking (AVP), facilitate the construction of smart parking lots and Huangpu Baidu vehicle infrastructure cooperative project, build demonstration application scenarios such as Guangzhou International Bio Island, and promote the integration of vehicle, infrastructure, network and cloud comprehensively. At the same time, Guangzhou is the first city in China to promulgate the General Technical Specifications for the Construction of Pilot Areas for Internet of Vehicles and Technical Specifications for V2X Cloud-controlled Basic Platforms to provide standards for the citywide IoV.
Three automobile industry clusters have been established in eastern, southern and northern Guangzhou. Nansha Automobile Cluster, which is located in the geometric center of the Greater Bay Area, stands out. Nansha now has a spatial pattern with “GAC Toyota in northern Nansha, Pony.ai and HYCAN in central Nansha, Intelligent Connected Vehicle Industrial Park in southern Nansha,” in which GAC Toyota’s complete vehicle project plays a leading role, NEV project is the support, and intelligent vehicle is the direction of development. It has Shazai Island Automobile Terminal, the largest professional ro-ro automobile terminal in South China. As the only national-level new zone in Guangdong Province, the largest area in Guangdong Pilot Free Trade Zone, the Demonstration Zone of all-round Cooperation among Guangdong, Hong Kong and Macao for Comprehensive Cooperation, and the only sub-center in Guangzhou, Nansha will provide an enabling business environment and development space for high-quality intelligent vehicle projects.
World Intelligent Vehicle Conference is oriented to the world and the future. Bringing together the cutting-edge achievements of intelligent vehicle technology and rich application scenarios of intelligent vehicles, it aims to form an ecosystem for the healthy development of the intelligent vehicle industry. The World Intelligent Vehicle Conference 2021 will share wisdom with the global intelligent vehicle industry!
