As a leading service provider of full-stack autonomous driving solutions, Hongjing Zhijia relies on its independently developed car-grade autonomous driving computing platform, full-stack software algorithms and system integration capabilities to accurately meet the needs of various customers and provide customized solutions. The high-performance intelligent driving solution fully empowers all levels of intelligent driving functions. At present, Hongjing Zhijia has assisted a number of mainstream car companies and emerging forces to successfully achieve mass production and targeted landing of 30 models, and continues to create excellent value in the domestic ADAS market. In terms of hardware, its self-developed car-grade intelligent driving domain controller has become standard equipment for the main sales models of leading new energy car companies, achieving mass production and supply. In the field of software, Hongjing Zhijia relies on its advanced algorithm capabilities to bring users an excellent driving experience and ensure all-round driving safety.

In addition to cooperation in the field of pre-installed mass production, Hongjing Zhijia also targets the logistics heavy-duty truck scenario and actively deploys zero-carbon smart heavy-duty trucks. Smart zero-carbon heavy trucks are one of the core businesses of Hongjing Zhijia’s “Second Growth Curve”. Hongjing Zhijia has designed and defined a new species of heavy trucks, HTO, and cooperated in depth with heavy truck companies to manufacture and deliver a variety of vehicles for the global market. Zero-carbon smart heavy-duty truck. In 2024, Hongjing Zhijia’s zero-carbon smart heavy-duty trucks equipped with Hesai’s lidar will be delivered to customers in large quantities and put into operation, providing users with safer, greener and smarter products.

In recent years, Hesai has continued to lead the global market share and has the most advanced technical strength. In the domestic ADAS pre-installation mass production market, Hesai has established in-depth cooperation with many leading customers. Its product performance, quality and mass production capabilities All have passed rigorous market verification. As the importance of ADAS to automobile safety continues to increase, lidar has become a key functional and safety component in intelligent driving systems. With its diversified product lines, Hesai fully covers the autonomous driving field from L2 to L4, and extends to multiple scenarios such as robots and industrial applications. In the field of self-driving trucks, Hesai also has a mature deployment solution that has been mass-produced, which can achieve 360-degree full field of view coverage, and promote the commercialization of self-driving heavy trucks in the field of smart logistics through more accurate and safer perception sensors.

Liu Feilong, CEO of Hongjing Zhijia, said:"As two companies that are growing rapidly under the wave of autonomous driving development, Hongjing and Hesai are looking forward to in-depth cooperation based on lidar software and hardware technology, so that high-quality perception data can support large-scale mass production of ADAS products, and then promote more Research and development of high-level autonomous driving. This cooperation aims to create a smarter and safer autonomous driving system and expand it to all scenarios, accelerate the implementation of more valuable functions and applications, and ultimately achieve a complete commercial closed loop.”

Li Yifan, CEO of Hesai Technology, said:"Our cooperation with Hongjing Zhijia covers many fields, from ADAS technology to smart heavy trucks. Hesai is honored to work with Hongjing Zhijia to provide efficient and safe high-end assistance to OEMs through our lidar. Driving solutions. At the same time, our high-performance lidar products will be deployed in more and more smart vehicles, making safer and more convenient autonomous driving products available in a wider range of applications.”

In the future, Hesai's high-performance and high-reliability lidar will strongly support Hongjing Intelligent Driving's "emphasis on perception, light on maps" technical route and further optimize ADAS performance and experience. At the same time, the two parties will work hand in hand in multiple fields such as smart driving domain control sensors and perception algorithms to jointly promote the mass production of high-end intelligent assisted driving on more models, and accelerate the research and development process of autonomous driving above the L2+ level, allowing More users can enjoy the convenience brought by autonomous driving technology and continue to create value for users.
