BlackBerry’s QNX Neutrino Realtime Operating System (RTOS) and QNX Hypervisor provide an engaging and immersive driving experience, with a safe, secure, and reliable software foundation.

The China-built EV will also be exported to Europe, and used by Renault Group’s subscription-based mobility unit, Mobilize, as the go-to vehicle for taxis, online ride-hailing, private vehicle hires, and more.

The Yi model features a futuristic design, paired with improved intelligence, safety, and driving experience. Its smart cockpit is equipped with a dual-linked screen, full LCD dashboard, and spacious central console. The cockpit enables various functions, including in-vehicle infotainmen, ADAS, voice and gesture recognition, and HUD.

Moreover, the cockpit also allows AR, AI, and hologram functions, as well as controls for ambient lights and intelligent seats, providing users with a comprehensive ecosystem of onboard experience. 

BICV and BlackBerry has been in cooperation since 2017, successfully deploying BlackBerry’s QNX system onto multiple smart cockpit, LCD dashboard, and air conditioner screen products.
