The Chinese giant of electric cars announced on February 10, 2025 that he will integrate Deepeek to his artificial intelligence model, which powers his new driver support technology.

Beijing – Chinese giant of electric cars Hunter All more a supporter with Deepseeek measurement, after a prior approach to a more careful approach to autonomous driving technology.
Advanced intelligent ride will become a standard safety function similar to the seat belts and airbags, the founder and chairman of BYD Wang Chuanf said during a live event concentrated by China on a late Monday.
The automator announced that it releases the “Dipilot” support system in the field of cars, which includes a cheap 69 800 yuan vehicle (9555 USD).
This means that BYD is probably the first car manufacturer in China, which offers such advanced opportunities to support the driver of the vehicle below 70,000 yuan, on Tuesday Nomura analysts announced. “BYD changes the competition strategy, from price reduction last year to updating the functions in 2025.” – Analysts said.
BYD also said that he integrates artificial intelligence Chinese startup Deepseek In at least the most advanced version of the new controller support system. Such systems use a combination of software, artificial intelligence and cameras or other sensors to control the vehicle, minimizing the need for human intervention.
“Deepseek integration is very significant,” said LE, founder and managing director of Sino Auto Insights, “Because now there is a home independent AI technology, with whom he can cooperate to work to offer equivalent intelligent functions offered by their competitors.”
“He said that he puts it firmly at the driver's place, dictating the pace of” technological features, noting that the company had previously delayed with Chinese competitors.
Over two years ago, Chinese car manufacturers began to offer the driver support functions as a way to stand out on a fierce competitive electric car market in China. But the management of BYD informed investors in March 2023 that when it comes to “intelligent driving”, it was difficult to determine Responsibility in the event of an accident engaging autonomous vehicles. But they noticed that advanced supported driving technologies could improve overall safety.
On Monday, he said that so -called intelligent vehicles can improve road safety by monitoring road conditions and avoiding threats, while Big Data and AI models will improve technology over time.
In addition, over 20 models were launched with a new technology for supporting the BYD controller on Monday. The automator, which develops quickly abroad, said nothing about global availability.
Tesla is still waiting for approval
The introduction of driver support in China was regulatory restrictions, although more and more local authorities allowed more cars to use the driving software assisted on crowded streets of the city.
Chinese startup Xpeng He was an early applicant, for the first time implemented, he supports urban roads in his own Home City of Guangzhou in September 2022Before expanding to Shenzhen and Shanghai at the beginning of 2023. Until February 2024Xpeng said that this function was useful in most China. Mona, the company's mass brand market The first car in August with some power steering options.
Competitive cars from Li Auto, Huawei Partners, NIO and Xiaomi say that they offer certain driver support functions, such as automatic parking. Several car manufacturers use car nvidia systems.
TeslaThe most advanced version of the driver's assistance, called “full -length driving”, has not yet received the consent of Beijing, despite the repetitive statements of Elon Musk, that IT can be available in ChinaAs soon as the end of 2024, combined with earnings in January, Musk assigned a delay in our and Chinese restrictions that prevent Tesla from quickly developing a locally compatible version of the controller support software.
Although the integration of Deepseek increases the competitive advantage of BYD, Brian Tycangco, an analyst at Stansberry Research, warned that cooperation “increases the likelihood that BYD vehicles will encounter more difficulties in entering Western markets, such as US for reasons for national security.”
