A new report has revealed that BAIC is working on a smart car that is being co-developed with Huawei. Two companies have partnered up for sometime now and it appears that the collaboration will bring another new smart car in the automobile market.

For those unaware, the two companies had jointly developed cars in the past, with the car maker building the actual car while the Chinese tech giant developed the supporting technology and networking infrastructure. Now, a new report has revealed that the upcoming smart car model from this joint venture will be launching sometime in the year of 2024 and will be sold in select former Huawei stores.

The news arrives from sources close to the matter (Via ITHome) that claimed that the car is based on BAIC’s existing platform but with a different brand name. Similar to last time, the smartphone maker will provide technical solutions such as smart driving thanks to the HarmonyOS for the vehicles cockpit. This will likely also include smart car control for the upcoming car.

For those unaware, Huawei had launched the BAIC Group’s Arcfox Alpha S EV that had also featured the HarmonyOS platform. The Arcfox Alpha S was announced back in 2021 and featured autonomous driving as well. So, we can also expect the upcoming smart car model to also feature self driving technology too.
