In a press release on Dec. 6, Hesai announced its role as the exclusive supplier of automotive long-range Lidar for Changan Automobile's new intelligent driving platform. Hesai's ATX model, a compact Lidar released in April, is anticipated to surpass orders of 1.5 million units in the upcoming years. This agreement entails the provision of Lidar units for over 10 vehicle models across various brands under the Changan Automobile umbrella, with the first model poised for mass production in the latter half of 2025. This collaboration builds upon a strategic partnership initiated in 2022, which saw the successful market launch of the Changan Nevo E07, featuring two Hesai AT128 Lidars, in October.
The ATX Lidar model, known for its compact size, ultrahigh resolution and long-range capabilities, incorporates Hesai's proprietary technology to improve point cloud resolution while reducing volume, weight and power consumption. With Hesai's ATX model set to become a standard feature in multiple automotive brands and models by 2025, it aims to significantly enhance road safety through Changan Automobile's intelligent driving platform. Hesai and Changan Automobile are committed to advancing intelligent driving functions and making them more accessible on a global scale.
