Global leaders in automotive technology converged in Beijing this week for the 2025 World Intelligent Connected Vehicles (ICV) Conference, a pivotal platform shaping the future of transportation. Co-organized by China's Ministry of Industry and Information Technology and key partners, the three-day event brings together 1,000 policymakers, tech innovators, and industry experts from multiple countries and regions.
Driving Cross-Border Collaboration
This year's conference marks a milestone in international engagement, with ministerial-level representatives from overseas attending for the first time. 'We're advancing practical cooperation through factory tours for foreign diplomats and dedicated bilateral meetings with partners like the UK and Germany,' revealed MIIT official Guo Shougang. Technical exchanges will focus on standardizing vehicle-road-cloud integration systems and AI-powered mobility solutions.
China's Roadmap for Smart Mobility
Showcasing progress under China's 14th Five-Year Plan, the event highlights breakthroughs in autonomous driving chips and human-machine interface technologies now achieving global parity. Over 60% of new passenger vehicles sold in China currently feature advanced driver-assistance systems, supported by 100+ technical standards and pilot programs across 20 cities.
Future-Focused Deliverables
Key conference outcomes include the launch of a national AI automotive applications base and new guidelines for vehicle-road coordination scenarios. A special report will outline standardization achievements in intelligent cockpit systems and collaborative perception technologies – critical infrastructure for next-gen smart cities.
