By Sun Wenyu (People's Daily Online)    15:13, January 26, 2018

China’s carmaker Dongfeng Motor Cooperation is currently stepping up efforts to develop autonomous internet vehicles, said Ma Li, senior engineer of the company on Jan.24.

The very first model of autopilot vehicles of the company will be buses, Ma added.

According to him, Dongfeng autopilot vehicles are among the best in many unmanned vehicle competitions. “But it might take a while before the technology is applied widely,” the engineer noted, explaining that it calls for further efforts on the establishment of smart traffic management systems and correspondent traffic regulations.

The high price of autopilot vehicles is another factor that contains the market, Ma said.

Dongfeng will test its conditional automation buses in 2019.
