China reins in self-driving hype as regulations crack down on ‘blindfolded smart driving’

Chinese automakers have set ambitious targets to introduce Level 3 (L3) autonomous driving technology starting in 2025. Companies including GAC, Zeekr, Xpeng, and Chery have announced plans for aggressive rollouts of L3 and even Level 4 (L4) systems over the next two years. However, the primary challenge facing the industry is regulatory rather than technological. The broader adoption of these autonomous driving systems depends heavily on the establishment of detailed nationwide regulations.
