the 2024 chengdu auto show is coming soon. do you still remember what the most popular model was at the 2023 chengdu auto show? that’s right, it’s the super popular box-shaped model in the past three years.

in recent years, boxy cars have become the new favorite at auto shows, and chinese auto brands have almost completed the layout of hard-core off-road products from hundreds of thousands to more than one million overnight.

earlier, the off-road vehicles that took the center stage were not domestically made, nor were they electric off-road vehicles, let alone hybrid vehicles. for example, jeep, g-class, land cruiser, prado, pajero, wrangler, etc. today, they have not been blown away by the wind and rain, but it is true that the kingship has fallen and they are lonely.

however, at this year's chengdu auto show, the square box model has obviously undergone some changes:

on the one hand, the ripples and splashes of the second half of automotive intelligence have unsurprisingly begun to hit square box models.

on august 27, byd fangchengbao and huawei qiankun intelligent driving signed a cooperation agreement in shenzhen. it is reported that the teams of both parties have established the project and conducted research and development verification for a long time. it is expected that after the third quarter of this year, bao 8 will be equipped with huawei qiankun intelligent driving ads 3.0 and officially launched. this intelligent driving cooperation between byd and huawei will be fully implemented in its sub-brand fangchengbao.

on the other hand, there are far fewer new square-box cars than in the previous show. although the total number is still objective, compared with the 2023 chengdu auto show, those models lined up in various venues, such as jishi 01, chery exploration 06, jetour traveler, dongfeng mengshi 917, new bj40, haval menglong, tank 400 hi4-t, fangcheng baobao 5, byd yangwang u8, etc.
