The provincial government set a goal to forge Hunan Province into a base for intelligent connected vehicle industry with global competitiveness. 

According to the plan, Hunan province aims to expand its annual auto production capacity to at least 1.5 million vehicles by 2025, with 70% being intelligent connected vehicles. Meanwhile, the province plans to incubate more than ten industry-leading companies.  

Hunan province also eyes transformation within the industry, from basic manufacturing-based to an R&D and innovation pivot, improving its auto product mix to a higher level. 

The office of Hunan’s Industry and Information Technology Department believed that the ongoing electric, intelligent, and connected transformation of the auto industry ushered in a new light for Hunan to complete its own transformation to an advanced role within the industry.  

Specifically, the provincial government will help promote the application of intelligent connected technologies onto mid-to-high-end passenger vehicles and commercial vehicles. In the meantime, the government plans to further the key technology development of auto parts used in the new energy (including hydrogen energy) and intelligent connected fields, as well as forming a comprehensive supporting system. Moreover, auto intelligence and connectivity will also be integrated into Hunan’s existing advantage industries, including engineering and agricultural machinery. 

Overall, Hunan province plans to enhance its intelligent connected infrastructure construction, building smart cities within the province.
