As the core support of the intelligence of Chang'an, the software center will focus on the research and development of software such as intelligent driving, intelligent cockpit, intelligent vehicle control, intelligent auto cloud service, etc., committed to revolutionizing the user experience, creating a comfortable driving environment, and realizing the sound interconnection of people, vehicles, and life, noted Li Wei, executive vice-president of Chang'an Automobile.
Reportedly, the software center will lead in a 1,000-person high-end research and development team, expecting an estimated cumulative revenue of over 3.5 billion yuan and a cumulative investment of over 3 billion yuan in research and development within ten years. At the end of this year, the center will take the lead in mass production of level 3 (L3) autonomous driving and complete the development and carrying of CAOS, a standardized cockpit operating system of Chang'an. Next year, the center will realize the mass production of service-based intelligent vehicle control software platforms and the development of cloud learning platforms to improve software reuse and reduce development costs. It is expected that by 2025, the center will realize the mass production of level 4 (L4) autonomous driving, making efficiency and software capability its core competitiveness.
The entry of Chang'an Auto Global Software Center will help Xiantao Big Data Valley seize the commanding heights of the software information industry and intelligent automobile industry, and inject new impetus into Yubei to accelerate the transformation of old and new driving forces and build five hundred-billion-level industrial clusters, said relevant person in charge of Yubei District.
