Beijing (Gasgoo)- In December 2023, GAC Group became one of the pioneer automotive companies to obtain the L3 autonomous driving road testing license. Through its smart mobility service platform, OnTime, GAC Group collaboratively established a test fleet equipped with the ADiGO PILOT intelligent driving system, conducting L3 autonomous driving road tests.
In 2024, OnTime will launch GAC's L3 autonomous driving vehicles in Guangzhou, providing users with advanced ride-share services, accelerating the commercialization of L3 autonomous driving technology to meet the growing demand for high-level intelligent driving in the transportation market.
The extensive intelligent driving test, conducted during the morning rush hour in Guangzhou, spanned three administrative districts, covering over 50 km round trip. The route included highways, urban expressways, and city roads.
ADiGO PILOT's intelligent driving capability excels in "City + Highway" NDA intelligent navigation assistance. In urban settings, City NDA adeptly handles complex scenarios, seamlessly switching to Highway NDA on highways and urban expressways. It autonomously navigates ramps, changes lanes, switches between high-speed and curved roads, showcasing versatile capabilities.
Moreover, ADiGO PILOT achieved a groundbreaking dual-direction seamless switch from L3 autonomous driving to L2++ navigation-assisted driving. When road conditions allow, the system activates L3 autonomous driving with the TJP function (Traffic Jam Pilot). Under the TJP feature, the vehicle autonomously centers within lanes, maintains speed and distance, allowing the driver to completely relinquish the steering wheel without monitoring the road. When conditions exceed L3 usage, the system seamlessly transitions to L2++ navigation-assisted driving, ensuring a safe and flexible driving experience.
