Huawei Gadget Company Ready to Expand Wings to the Electric Car Industry
Business Insider reported that Huawei is in talks with Chang'an Automobiles, a Chinese state-owned automotive company, and another Chinese auto company, BAIC BluePark New Energy Technology.
Richard Yu, head of Huawei's consumer business group that led the company to become one of the world's largest smartphone manufacturers, has reportedly shifted his focus to EVs.
At that time, Huawei's cellphones were banned from circulation in the US and its allied countries because it was suspected that the Chinese government could use them to spy on them through its 5G network.
According to the source, Huawei will only be a digital car-oriented component provider.
On the other hand, Chang'an and BAIC BluePark have so far refused to comment on this issue.
Sales of new energy vehicles (NEV) or new energy vehicles including batteries and fuel cells are targeted by China to reach 20% by 2025.
In addition, Huawei has also established partnerships with car manufacturers such as Daimler AG, General Motors Co, and SAIC Motor to develop smart car technology.
The electric vehicle-to-vehicle charging method, battery-checking mechanism, and two other inventions made by Huawei have earned it four patents at the end of February 2021.
So will Huawei really swerve into the electric car realm and restore US confidence in it? Let's just wait!
