On April 24th, amidst the global attention of the 2025 Shanghai Auto Show, Beidou Zhilian Technology Co., Ltd. (referred to as "Beidou Zhilian") and Zhijia Continent (Shanghai) Intelligent Technology Co., Ltd. (referred to as "Zhijia Continent") officially signed a strategic cooperation agreement. Both parties announced that they will integrate high-quality global resources and carry out comprehensive strategic cooperation in the field of assisted driving, committed to providing global car companies with safer and more cost-effective cross domain integration solutions, and opening a new era of intelligent travel.

This strong alliance focuses on the high ground of intelligent cockpit and assisted driving technology, and the two sides will build a strategic cooperation system of "ecology research and development mass production". In terms of technology, both parties will build a new generation of cross domain fusion computing solution based on the full stack technology capabilities of Beidou Intelligent Connected in the field of intelligent cockpit, as well as the hardware, system architecture, bottom software middleware design, system integration, and engineering delivery capabilities of the cabin driving fusion platform, combined with the core advantages of AI algorithms, software and hardware architecture, and data closed-loop platform of Intelligent Driving Continent in assisted driving; In the industrial dimension, achieve cost optimization through deep integration of the supply chain and create a 100000 level intelligent driving equality program for car models; In the ecological dimension, build an open technology platform and connect the complete ecological chain of upstream and downstream.

As a national level specialized and innovative key "little giant" enterprise, Beidou Intelligent Connection has completed a global R&D layout, setting up R&D centers in Chongqing, Shenzhen, Beijing, Chengdu, Nanjing, Suqian and other places, gathering nearly a thousand R&D engineers, and applying for nearly 1000 intellectual property rights. At present, the company has provided intelligent connected solutions to more than 20 leading host manufacturers worldwide, and its intelligent connected vehicle product market shipment volume has remained in the first camp of the industry.

Zhijia Continent was jointly established by Horizon Robotics and Continental Group, relying on the high-quality resources of its parent company to build a complete technological ecosystem and mass production capabilities. In terms of product solutions, Zhijia Continent has launched a combination of assisted driving products with full scene coverage, unified architecture, and scalability - the full scene assisted driving system Starry Star Astra and the high-performance assisted driving solution Haoyue Luna, aiming to provide users with urban and high-speed NOA functions covering various price range models. At present, the products related to intelligent driving in mainland China meet the regulations and safety standards of markets in various countries around the world, and can provide one-stop support for OEMs' overseas needs and NCAP five-star ratings.  

Beidou Intelligent Connection and Intelligent Driving Mainland have reached a strategic cooperation to jointly define a new benchmark for cabin driving integration

At the signing ceremony, both parties jointly released two innovative "One BOX solutions for cabin driving integration". Among them, the Zhiyu 3.0 platform focuses on the concept of "cabin driving equality", realizing the popularization of assisted driving standard through the sharing of computing resources, enabling 100000 yuan level economy vehicles to have high-speed navigation capabilities; the Zhiyu 4.0 platform creates an AI intelligent agent integrated "user-friendly" intelligent driving experience, supporting multi-modal generative interaction, narrow road detours and avoidance, complex intersection left and right turns and U-turns, congestion games and other scenarios, creating a "butler style" intelligent travel experience for more mid to high end vehicle users.

This cooperation is not simply a technological overlay, but a value reconstruction of the automotive intelligence industry, "said Zhang Jingfeng, President of Beidou Intelligent Connection, at the signing ceremony." We are moving from single point breakthroughs to system innovation, and revitalizing the star level intelligent driving experience through deep integration of cabin driving

Li Biao, CEO of Zhijia Mainland, said, "Through cross domain integration, the two solutions will significantly reduce the R&D costs of car companies, promote the popularization of intelligence to the mass market, and bring leading intelligent driving products to every continent

This strong alliance between "veteran players of intelligent cockpit" and "innovative enterprises in intelligent driving" marks a new stage of ecological competition and cooperation in China's automotive intelligence. The deep coupling of the technology matrices of both parties will accelerate the popularization of advanced assisted driving technology, jointly reshape the global automotive industry pattern, and lead the global wave of intelligent connected technology innovation in the automotive industry with Chinese wisdom.
