Huawei, which has made major investments in autonomous driving technologies, has now reached an agreement with Audi. It was stated that Audi will equip some of its models sold in the Chinese market with the Huawei smart driving system. So which will be the first Huawei-supported model?
Audi A5 will support Huawei driving technology
According to news emerging in China, Huawei’s driver assistance technology will be included in Audi’s internal combustion vehicles produced after 2026. The first Audi model to support this is expected to be released at the end of the year and go on sale in 2025. Audi A5 will be.
The Audi A5 will replace the A4 sedan, currently the company’s best-selling model in China. For those who don’t know, models such as A4, A6 and Q5 make up a significant part of Audi’s sales in the Chinese market. That’s why the support established with Huawei is very important for Chinese customers.
Audi stated that it aims to offer customers “best-in-class driver assistance systems” by collaborating with both local and global suppliers. But he did not name specific partners due to trade secrets. In this context, we know that it has reached an agreement only with Huawei.
The production of Huawei-supported Audi A5 models will be carried out by Audi’s two China-based joint ventures, FAW-Audi and SAIC-Audi.
Huawei’s smart driving technology is considered leading, especially in the Chinese market. The company’s latest Qiankun ADS 3.0 system was released in August and enables advanced functions such as navigation on autopilot.
