Jidu Robo-01, which will be put into production in partnership with Geely, will become a technology base with its equipment.
In the last few years, as automobile manufacturers prepare for the future in the electric wave, we have witnessed a radical transformation in their product ranges. In this process, which includes even the most rooted names with more than 100 years of history, there is a new challenge for every brand. In today’s technologies, where technical qualifications are shaped within a certain framework, it is getting harder to stand out from the competition day by day. The electric car model, which will be put into production by Chinese technology giant Baidu in partnership with Geely, is a candidate to be one of the most remarkable names of recent times with its technology. Jidu Robo-01, which reveals a futuristic character with its minimal and robotic lines, was put on the stage hours ago in light of the plans to be put into mass production in 2023.

Jidu Robo-01 also carries artificial intelligence technology
Although it was introduced as a concept, the first details shared for the Robo-01, which is guaranteed to preserve nearly 90 percent of its structure in mass production, focus on the technological powers of the vehicle. It is possible to say that the limits of hardware are pushed in the model, which will take the foundations of autonomous driving technology from two Nvidia Orin X chips. The list includes two lidars (3D modeling focused), 5 millimeter radars, 12 ultrasonic radars and 12 cameras integrated into the front hood. The autopilot, in which all these equipment will function together, will perform its duties in the infrastructure of the technology giant Baidu’s Apollo system. The fact that the brand points to Tesla about the capabilities of the autonomous driving system is one of the details that increases our expectations.

Robo-01 carries the foundations of artificial intelligence technology as well as autonomous driving technology. Taking an important approach to effectively use the vehicle’s headlights, Jidu engineers have transformed this section into a scheme that can communicate with the outside world. It is possible to see graphics such as giving way to pedestrians and displaying the battery percentage in the first details. The lighting design, which is designed in pixel type, has the potential to transfer much richer information. Jidu Robo-01, which has not shared information about infrastructure elements such as motor and battery for now, is aimed to be offered for sale with a starting price of 30,000 dollars next year. The Chinese brand will introduce its second model this year.
