Chongqing-The Investing in Chongqing · Chongqing Global Promotion (Online) Event, 2022 was successfully held on July 11. Wang Chunshui from the Chongqing Economic and Information Technology Commission introduced the ecosystem construction and development direction of Chongqing's intelligent connected vehicles at the event. 

According to Wang, the global intelligent automobile industry has now entered a period of unprecedentedly intensive activity. The development of automobiles has subverted the tradition, combining the power of intelligence and technological progress. The transformation of the intelligent automobile industry is on the "eve" of a major breakthrough and also in the golden period of development.

Chongqing, a vital automobile industry base in China, has forged a "1+10+1000" advantageous industrial cluster with Changan Auto as the leader, more than ten OEMs as the mainstay, and thousands of supporting enterprises as the supporter.

Chongqing has maintained an automobile output of more than two million vehicles, with a complete range of products and a relatively complete parts supply system. 70% of fuel vehicle parts used by OEMs are produced locally.

In recent years, Changan, Ford, GWM, Ideal, Geely, Dongfeng, BYD, SGMW, and other domestic and foreign auto groups have built new bases and increased investment in Chongqing, proving that Chongqing has become a hot spot for investment in the national auto industry. Chongqing is now accelerating the development of the whole industrial chain of R&D, manufacturing, marketing, and operation of the new energy vehicle industry.

Furthermore, Chongqing is also speeding up the construction of a national pilot area for the Internet of Vehicles, a national demonstration city for the electric vehicle battery-swapping model, and a national demonstration city for hydrogen fuel cell vehicles. In the days to come, it will accelerate the building of a world-class industrial cluster of intelligent new energy vehicles.

Chongqing's output of intelligent new energy vehicles is expected to exceed 1 million by 2025 and reach 3 million by 2030. By then, a group of domestic leading enterprises and brands with global influence will come into being.
