( english.jiading.gov.cn )2026-07-27

The 2026 China Auto Forum was held in Shanghai's Jiading district from July 21 to 23, bringing together industry leaders to discuss the future of China's automotive industry.

Artificial intelligence was one of the forum's key topics. Companies showcased new AI-powered technologies, including an onboard AI computing system that provides local computing power even without an internet connection, improving the intelligent cockpit experience.

According to Ye Shengji, chief engineer of the China Association of Automobile Manufacturers, vehicle sales in China exceeded 15 million in the first half of 2026, while new energy vehicle sales topped 7 million, performing better than expected.

Ye said AI is accelerating the development of intelligent connected vehicles, noting that Level 2 driver assistance systems are now installed in around 65 percent to 70 percent of new vehicles in China. He stressed that safety must remain the industry's top priority.

Jiading has hosted the China Auto Forum for six consecutive years and is currently working to build a world-class automotive industry hub. By the end of 2025, the district's automotive industry had gathered over 4,500 companies involved in research, manufacturing and related services.
