China, the world’s largest single automotive market, is also the most intense testing ground for the industry’s shift toward smart and electric vehicles. DIGITIMES Research notes that China’s adoption of advanced driver-assistance systems (ADAS) and intelligent cockpits in new cars has rapidly outpaced other regions, reaching significant penetration, especially in mid- to high-end models. Electric vehicles (EVs) have overtaken internal combustion engine cars as the sales leader in the passenger car segment, with the speed and scale of this transformation surpassing prior market expectations.
