Building on HOZON Auto's intelligent ecosystem business layout, the companies will work together in in-vehicle visual perception technologies, intelligent driving data and platform construction, and more. Meanwhile, the companies will also cooperate in the AI field based on the automaker's self-developed vision algorithms.

The partners intend to build a long-term relationship to construct a new "intelligent vehicles within reach" ecosystem under their helpful resources within the industry and R&D capabilities.

Currently, HOZON Auto's NETA brand has three models on the market, the NETA V, the NETA U Pro, and the recently introduced NETA S. In order to provide users with a more convenient EV mobility experience, the automaker has already implemented its charging station layout in 100 cities domestically and is still growing.

Additionally, in September, the automaker joined hands with Horizon Robotics to produce intelligent vehicles with global competitiveness by adopting the latter's featured high-performance auto-grade Journey chips.

Earlier in August, HOZON Auto also partnered with HUAWEI to carry out all-round cooperation on smart connectivity, in-car computing, intelligent driving, digital energy, and cloud-based service areas.
