After Audi’s bid to acquire MG electric car platform, Chinese multinational technology corporation, Huawei, and Chery’s electric sedan and a rival of Tesla Model S has created a buzz among the EV enthusiasts.

In a recent development, the spy images of Chery and Huawei’s electric car AITO EH3 have revealed some details including LiDAR sensor positioned on the roof and a sizable floating screen on the dashboard.

The interior of AITO EH3 is adorned with a spacious floating screen, a slim instrument panel, and a compact steering wheel, creating a modern and sleek ambiance.

Huawei’s Swift Expansion

Huawei’s Chinese automotive operations are undergoing swift expansion. AITO, developed in conjunction with Dongfeng Motor’s subsidiary Seres, is one of their recent launches. Besides AITO, Huawei is also engaged in collaborations with Changan and CATL for Avatr EVs.
