Back in April 2025, Liu Yifei—brand ambassador for Harmony Intelligent Mobility Alliance's Luxeed—appeared at the brand's gala. The host revealed then that a voice pack recorded by the actress would arrive in the car's Huawei Celia assistant, activated by the wake phrase "Celia, Celia."
However, the latest details suggest Liu Yifei's voice will be limited to parking scenario announcements. It remains unclear whether the feature will eventually extend to other voice interactions, as officials have not provided further information.
Beyond the exclusive parking voice, the image shared by the Luxeed director indicates the ADS 4.1 update will also enable conversations between occupants and pedestrians. The Huawei Qiankun intelligent driving system will be upgraded to ADS Max V4.1.0. A specific release date for the new version has not yet been announced.
Huawei has previously indicated that ADS V4.1 introduces multiple safety enhancements. It adds support for eAES anti-sandwich functionality, which can predict the risk of approaching vehicles from behind to effectively prevent rear-end collisions. The system's eAES performance has been further strengthened for all-weather protection. Additionally, the software optimizes driver-assist capabilities, offering more precise support on sharp turns and at intersections. If a driver suddenly becomes incapacitated, the system can automatically pull over and call for emergency services. Hands-off status is monitored in real-time, triggering a safety pull-over mechanism if the limit is exceeded. Even in extreme scenarios like a tire blowout, the system maintains composure to help stabilize the vehicle.
