لماذا يهم
The article discusses the potential arrival of Level 5 (L5) fully autonomous vehicles, defined by SAE International standards as vehicles capable of operating anytime, anywhere, and under any weather without human intervention. WeRide CEO Tony Han Xu believes this 'Super Drive' technology is not far off.
WeRide boss Tony Han Xu believes the first L5 fully autonomous cars may arrive on streets by 2035, as global carmakers and tech firms accelerate the application of self-driving technologies despite roadblocks.
A vehicle capable of full automation is known as Level 5 (L5), according to a set of standards published by SAE International in 2014.
Referring to L5 as “Super Drive”, Han, CEO of WeRide, said its reality was not far off.
“I think within 10 years, we will achieve ‘Super Drive’,” Han said in an interview with the South China Morning Post. “That means a car can drive anywhere better than a human being.”
There are six automation levels, ranging from L0 where the car is completely controlled by a driver, to L5 where a vehicle can operate anytime, anywhere and under any weather without human intervention.
