Critics doubted Huawei could rival Bosch in automotive.

These partnerships have produced several best-selling models, such as AITO’s M5, M7, and M9, with more in the pipeline. The success of these collaborations has not gone unnoticed, with more domestic automakers drawn to the prospect of working with Huawei to develop connected, digital, and self-driving cars of the future.In a significant breakthrough, Huawei reportedly secured an order in late August from Audi’s China joint venture.

Japanese carmakers led by Toyota are used to holding suppliers’ shares as part of a cross-shareholding agreement to bond through shared interests. This rags-to-riches story was so dramatic that Seres’ president, He Liyang, publicly thanked Huawei during the April 2024 launch of the new M5 model, stating in a somewhat obsequious tone, “Thank you, great Huawei.”
