"ICV has become a strategic direction for the development of the global automotive industry." Li Keqiang, an academician of the CAE Member and a professor of the School of Vehicle and Transportation of Tsinghua University, said at the 2023 China International Intelligent Industry Expo (hereinafter referred to as the Smart Expo) Summit Forum. On September 4th, the Smart Expo opened in Chongqing. In response to the booming development of the digital economy, the Smart Expo focuses on annual themes such as intelligent connected new energy vehicles and digital China, highlighting specialization, internationalization, and marketization. Authoritative experts and scholars from both domestic and international sources, as well as industry leaders, attended the opening ceremony and summit forums to conduct cutting-edge discussions around intelligent connected vehicles. Intelligent connected vehicles will redefine cities. "Currently, artificial intelligence is becoming a key force in reshaping the global economic structure." Zhang Kejian, Deputy Minister of Industry and Information Technology, stated at the opening ceremony that with the efforts of all sectors, China's intelligent industry has accelerated development and the industrial system is constantly improving. The scale of the intelligent connected and new energy vehicle industries continues to grow, and the cumulative production of new energy vehicles has exceeded 20 million units, The market penetration rate reached 28.32%. The integration and development of intelligent connected vehicles, intelligent transportation, smart cities, and other industries are driving the rapid development of the automotive networking industry. As one of the important automobile production bases in China, Chongqing's intelligent connected new energy vehicles developed rapidly in the first half of this year, with a year-on-year increase of 9.6% in production and 33.8% in output; The import and export volume of new energy vehicles for the China Europe Express (Chongqing New Europe) continues to rise, with a total of 6139 new energy vehicles exported and a value of 790 million yuan, with year-on-year growth of 131.3% and 190.1%, respectively.
