XPeng had earlier hinted through social media that one of its upcoming EV models will feature a HUD engineered by Huawei.
The Chinese electric vehicle (EV) sector just witnessed a major shift this week as XPeng Motors and tech behemoth Huawei -- longtime rivals -- announced a partnership to jointly announce advance AR head-up display (HUD) technology.
Notably, globally recognised for smartphone manufacturing and telecommunications infrastructure, Huawei has established a substantial presence in automotive solutions. This collaboration marks a significant turning point in China's rapidly evolving automotive landscape.
XPeng had earlier hinted through social media that one of its upcoming EV models will feature a Head-Up Display (HUD) engineered by Huawei, with the HUD projecting driving information directly onto the vehicle's windshield. The announcement was made via posts on Chinese social platform Weibo.
Traditional HUD systems provide basic functionality by projecting essential vehicle data -- including current velocity and remaining range -- directly into the driver's line of sight. However, Augmented Reality HUD technology represents a significant advancement, offering sophisticated navigation assistance through visual overlays that guide drivers with lane-specific directions appearing superimposed on the actual roadway.
The tech giant provides ADAS (Advanced Driver Assistance System) software and solutions including LiDAR and display systems. The company's Advanced Driving System (ADS), currently in version 3.2, enables various levels of autonomous functionality while maintaining mandatory driver presence requirements.
The partnership comes at a time when Chinese EV manufacturers compete intensely for market share through various strategies including significant price reductions, advanced smart HUDs, assisted driving capabilities, and performance enhancements.
