Qianli Technology's Unique AI Self-Driving Journey Begins a New Chapter

A journey of a thousand miles begins in Chongqing.

Qianli Technology recently held a brand launch event in Chongqing to showcase its latest strategic achievements. Focusing on "AI+", they announced the "Qianli Plan" along with a new brand English name, "AFARI," and brand logo, jointly accelerating AI and international development to initiate a new phase.

The scale of this press conference was quite grand, with guests including Li Shufu from Geely Auto and Zhu Huarong from Changan Auto, as well as director Xu Zheng and professional racer Ma Qinghua. The two of them drove the Zeekr 9X to deeply experience the Qianli intelligent assisted driving system on the magical roads of Chongqing.

Yin Qi, the chairman of Qianli Technology, stated that as a new brand, Qianli Technology will leverage Chongqing's solid industrial chain advantages to accelerate the construction of an industry-leading "AI+" innovation system, striving to become a world-class technology company.

Qianli Technology has made remarkable achievements in intelligent driving and has become an important partner for multiple automotive brands in the field of intelligent driving.

With Mercedes-Benz acquiring a 3% stake in Qianli Technology for 1.3 billion yuan through a negotiated transfer, it has become the fifth largest shareholder of Qianli Technology. Similarly, Zhejiang Geely Holding Group is also one of its major shareholders.

Li Shufu stated at the press conference that meeting Yin Qi felt like an old acquaintance.

Both parties will collaborate deeply on intelligent driving and jointly release the "Qianli Haohan" intelligent driving system, offering two options, H7 and H9, for the upcoming Zeekr 9X.

Leveraging Chongqing's strong manufacturing base and industrial chain advantages, along with its long-term accumulation of AI technology and talent, and with the support of strategic partner Geely's deep expertise in the automotive industry, Qianli Technology has completed a comprehensive business layout in the fields of intelligent driving, intelligent cockpits, and intelligent mobility in less than a year.

In the field of intelligent driving, Qianli Technology is redefining the industry benchmark for intelligent assisted driving based on advanced AI technology.

Facing the famous steep curves and slopes of Gele Mountain, the most complex structure in the country—the Panlong Interchange, the densely populated Jiefangbei business district, and the extreme underground parking garage, the Qianli Intelligent Assisted Driving System successfully passed the challenges with a safer, smoother, and more AI-driven intelligent assisted driving experience.

Famous director and actor Xu Zheng, along with professional racing driver Ma Qinghua, gave high praise when sharing their experience of the "8D Thousand Miles" real-life test drive.

In the field of intelligent cockpits, Qianli Technology has integrated AI large models with cockpits to create a new generation of intelligent cockpit Agent OS, achieving functions such as ultra-natural interaction, integrated memory, fully integrated maps, and a third living space. This aims to make the cockpit smarter, smoother, and more versatile, elevating the human-vehicle interaction experience to a new dimension.

In the field of smart travel, Qianli Technology plans to complete the full-chain industrial layout for Robotaxi within the next 18 months. First, by promoting industrial integration, it aims to build a complete industrial system from technology and products to services. Currently, Qianli Technology is accelerating the research and development of L4 level autonomous driving solutions, collaborating with Geely to develop dedicated Robotaxi models, and partnering with leading domestic and international mobility service providers to jointly create a Robotaxi operation service platform.

According to the plan, Qianli Technology will collaborate with partners to achieve large-scale Robotaxi operations in 10 cities worldwide, deploying over 1,000 Robotaxis in a single city.

"Qianli Technology" is a new brand. Since integrating AI elements and completing its rebranding at the end of last year, Qianli Technology has embarked on a new path with its "AI+" strategic transformation.

The unveiling of the new "AFARI" and brand logo. Officially, "AFARI" is a combination of "Afar" and "I" (intelligence), symbolizing both a broad vision of "thousands of miles away" and a technological pursuit of "intelligence over thousands of miles."

At the press conference, Inqi further elaborated on the "Afari Plan," outlining a future vision of harmonious coexistence between AI and humanity. The plan centers around the core vision of "One Brain, One OS, One Agent": to construct an AI brain driven by large models (One Brain); to create a unified operating system (One OS) that integrates each person's memories, behaviors, and controls across different devices; and ultimately, through a highly intelligent super assistant (One Agent) that understands you deeply, to achieve seamless cross-terminal and cross-scenario services. In this grand vision, various scenarios such as home, transportation, retail, and factories will connect to intelligent terminals, providing humans with comfortable, convenient, and efficient services.

All experiences are supported by the "One Brain, One OS, One Agent" system.

At the end of the press conference, 5,000 drones took to the sky, creating vivid images of "AI + Future" over the banks of the Yangtze and Jialing rivers in Chongqing, resembling a blueprint for the future of technology "AI + Vehicles."
