Xiaomi Auto's intelligent driving updates are too fast; how is this achieved?
From the initial product definition stage, Xiaomi Auto clearly committed to continuous investment in core technologies, adhering to a self-developed route for intelligent driving and investing ample R&D resources. Meanwhile, to ensure entering the first tier in 2024, the Xiaomi Intelligent Driving team fought simultaneously on three fronts: Highway NOA, Nationwide Mapless, and End-to-End. These three lines undertake delivery tasks for different stages, ensuring optimal user experience at each stage.
Rapid iteration is arguably one of the biggest advantages of full-stack self-development. Although there are some differences in technology, the entire working methods, underlying code, and resources are completely shared and autonomous. This is a natural barrier that supplier black-box solutions can never overcome. Our three fronts empower each other, share resources, and share results, providing a fundamental guarantee for rapid R&D.
