BEIJING, Sept. 27, 2020 /PRNewswire=KYODO JBN/--

China's leading high-end, premium electric SUV, the HiPhi X, makes its debut at

the 2020 Beijing Auto Show. Designed and built by Human Horizons in Shanghai,

the HiPhi X combines cutting-edge technical innovation, sustainable manufacturing

and state-of-the-art design, to create the world's first continuously evolving super SUV.

The event provides a new opportunity for Human Horizons to showcase some specific

technical elements of HiPhi X, including a number of world-first innovations, which

establish the company as a key player in the electrified era of intelligent mobility.

Following a five month delay due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the Beijing Auto

Show is the first major international auto show to run since the outbreak

began. The event is also an opportunity for many local manufacturers to

showcase their latest achievements, as well as to display the latest additions

from international carmakers. Positioned in the overlapping world of luxury

cars and technology (TECHLUXE(R)), Human Horizons' HiPhi X is featured alongside

brands such as Rolls-Royce, Bentley, Lamborghini, and Aston Martin, as well as

their technical partners, Huawei, Bosch and more.

Known as the world's first touch-free, door handle-less production vehicle, the

HiPhi X also includes numerous impressive global-first features, such as Level

4 Autonomous Valet Parking (AVP), a 5G-V2X communication network, the largest

number of voice control functions on any production vehicle, and facial recognition entry.  

The HiPhi X offers some of the industry's most advanced software capabilities.

With the world's best in-car data transmission bandwidth, combined with

cutting-edge, secure and developer-enabled 'HOA' electrical architecture, the

HiPhi X is constantly evolving. The vehicle is capable of real-time, continuous

monitoring of its systems, occupants and its surroundings, through 562 built-in

sensors. Over-the-air updates enable continuous improvement opportunities for

all vehicle systems and attributes including performance, UX interfaces and seat control.

The HiPhi X achieves a high-level of technical sophistication whilst

maintaining visual aesthetics by following three guiding principles; 'design

defined by scenarios, vehicle defined by software, and value defined by

co-creation'. With its interdependence between hardware and software, HiPhi X

is seen as being comparable to when smartphones replaced the previous

generations of mobile phones.

With the launch models being sold directly at the Beijing Auto Show starting at

RMB 800,000 for the four-seater and from RMB 680,000 for the six-seater, the

HiPhi X community will start to be developed. Providing opportunity for this

community to be a part of the experience, Human Horizons unveiled plans to

build 37 HiPhi Centers. These are spaces for the integration of art, technology,

and science, across 19 cities, opening throughout 2021. The Centers are designed

as a place to bring the HiPhi enthusiasts together and encourage the customers

to help define developments for HiPhi X and future vehicles.

Human Horizons announced its partnership with Microsoft at the World Artificial

Intelligence Conference in July 2020. The first AI application from this

partnership in a smart vehicle, is also being launched at the Auto Show in the

form of an AI assistant, named HiPhiGo. HiPhiGo has been specifically designed

to obey voice commands, and provide a truly interactive, advanced AI for the

driver. HiPhiGo has been developed to be creative; it can chat, write poetry,

produce a painting, and edit videos.

HiPhi X will be available in a small volume production run at the end of 2020,

with an official market launch in the 1st half of 2021.
